It has always been required, and it gets re-iterated in many license discussions. At both Cocoon and Forrest we have had trouble doing it, having so many supporting libraries. So we put the licenses beside each jar as text files with the same filename. At Forrest i have done a further compromise (until we move to Ivy which hope can help automate this license management). We put the license beside the jar as a text file, and mention the pathname in LICENSE.txt file. See more in a legal-discuss@ link, mentioned by me earlier in this thread. -David
