I could have sworn there was a JIRA for this, but I couldn't find an open one when I looked.

To see if a pom is affected by this pom-rewrite-bug, I usually do
  mvn release:prepare -DdryRun=true

After that I diff the original file pom.xml with the one called pom.xml.tag to see if the license has been removed. The fix that has worked for me in the past has been to put the entire starting project tag on one line.

Remember to do
  mvn release:clean
if afterwards to get a clean slate before starting the real release process.

Hi Dennis,

Is it a known limitation of release plugin? I am not aware about this.
