It doesn't need to do that much.
Take a look at the remote-resources plugin and the apache-jar-resource-
bundle (particularly DEPENDENCIES.vm) - they do exactly what you want
and should show you where to direct your efforts.

I'm taking my first crack at developing a plugin. I'm trying to
read/resolve the license for a particular dependency. I've read
tons of code but can't seem to pull it all together. I've read
dependency plugin resolve code, I've see the the MavenProject does
have license information, but the basic Dependency object does not
have this information. I presume I need to:
1) Grab hold of the Dependency object.
2) Reach back out and retrieve the pom.xml for that file.
3) Convert that pom.xml to a MavenProject object
4) Get the license for the MavenProject.
Alternatively, I was going to just do an HTTP GET on the pom.xml for
a given dependency, parse it and find the license. But surely there
is a clean way to do this. Can anyone shoot me a code fragment that
does this.
Thank in advance for any help.
