   The license and notice files in the root of a project isn't a Maven standard 
(is it?) and plus I don't think it's a great idea anyways as it becomes 
repetitive in systems with large numbers of modules, all under the same license.
   
   I think a better idea is to add an element to the MANIFEST.MF with the 
value(s) of project.licenses.license:
   
   License-1-Name: Apache License, 2.0
   License-1-Url: http://apache.org/APL-2.0.txt
   License-2-Name: GNU Lesser General Public License, 1.1
   License-2-Url: http://gnu.org/LGPL-1.1.txt
   
   This way all modules can inherit their licenses via parent and have the 
manifest populated automatically.
