How do we handle all the various license files with m2? Our distribution

I guess this question is common for all Apache projects using a Maven
repository, so it should be asked at the Maven list and possibly at
Legal, any taker?
The POM has a licence tag
http://maven.apache.org/maven-model/maven.html#class_license, if all
dependencies has this correctly defined (which they haven't) the
assembly plugin could at least in principle download all the licences
and make part of the distribution.
A first step could be to define it for our own parent POM.
