Veloctiy poms should have a <licenses> section
----------------------------------------------

                 Key: VELOCITY-518
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-518
             Project: Velocity
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Build
    Affects Versions: 1.5 beta2, 1.5 beta1, 1.4, 1.3.1, 1.3.1-rc2, 1.3, 
1.3-rc1, 1.2, 1.1, 1.1-rc2, 1.1-rc1, 1.0-Release, 1.0b3, 1.0b2, 1.0b1
            Reporter: Daniel Kulp



A licenses section should be added to the velocity poms.   It should look 
something like:

    <licenses>
        <license>
            <name>The Apache Software License, Version 2.0</name>
            <url>http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.txt</url>
            <distribution>repo</distribution>
        </license>
    </licenses>

The maven team is working on using that information in several plugins to help 
validate releases.  (Example: there could be an apache validate plugin that 
makes sure all the licenses of dependencies are OK for apache to release)
