As you can see, he still voted +1. However, this concerns me. I
guess there must be something that I need to set for the plugin in the
pom.xml to indicate that this is apache licensed. The generated
geronimo-plugin.xml includes <license osi-approved="false">The Apache
Software License, Version 2.0</license> rather than indicating true
for osi-approved.
So ... what to do with the vote? I really don't like the erroneous
license message. I'm leaning toward cancelling the vote again to get
this fixed. What are your opinions?
Personally, I'd like to see this fixed. How/where are we picking up the
osi-approved value?

It looks like I just needed to include <osiApproved>true</osiApproved>
in the plugin configuration section of the pom for this plugin. I
omitted it so it must default to false.
As Lin pointed out, I can update this in the plugin catalog (and I just
did in my staging repo) ... which results in the correct license info
being displayed when installing the plugin from the console. However,
we usually depend upon these catalog being generated with only minor
edits. I guess we could consider this another minor edit but it would
be nice to have it generate correctly.
If you attempt to install from my staging repo now (with the edit) it
will indicate it is open source licensed.
