----
If An Artifact Contains Code Under Several Licenses, Should It Contain Several 
License Files?
When an artifact contains code under several licenses, the LICENSE file should 
contain details of all these licenses. For each component which is not Apache 
licensed, details of the component should be appended to the LICENSE file. The 
component license itself may also be appended, or it may be stored elsewhere in 
the artifact with a pointer to it from the LICENSE file, e.g. if the license is 
long.
