Samael Bate commented on XALANJ-2731:
-------------------------------------
thanks, I can confirm that adding
{code:java}
<licenses>
<license>
<name>Apache-2.0</name>
</license>
</licenses> {code}
to the pom has fixed the issue.
It's really important for all maven projects to include this in the pom as it
helps users to ensure they are only adding dependencies with a compatible
license. Tooling such as _org.codehaus.mojo:license-maven-plugin_ can be used
to fail a build if dependencies are added with a clashing license.
This issue can be closed (please add fix version).
