 You're not saying that the boilerplate text should appear as comment in 
 every generated HTML document, are you?
 

Yes, I am.  For the same reason that it's in every Java file.

Go ahead. I suspect it that we should modify site.vsl
in either case. :-)
If we decide to modify all the xml files in /xdocs/,
appending link rel=license

manner you described is the wrong answer.
The discussion was about including a link to the license in the 
generated HTML documents. That is totally independent of whether the 
boilerplate text is included as XML comment in the xdoc sources IMHO, 
which should be done anyway.

You're not saying that the boilerplate text should appear as comment in 
every generated HTML document, are you?

link in the
manner you described is the wrong answer.

Instead, you should enclose the same boilerplate text at the top of 
each such
document that is included at the top of Java sources, enclosed in the
appropriate comment characters for your format (i.e. for XML, surround 
by
!--. and --, for properties files, prefix by #, and so on).
the documentation source files are pretty clear. IMHO the generated 
stuff is best done by altering the .vsl template. (i tried tricks with 
the source to get the license into the generated document but anakia 
dies.)

the .vsl template should definitely be altered to include the 
boilerplate (as a comment) but i think that it'd be good to think about 
including a meta and/or link tags as well.

I performed a slight change into .vsl and committed a little

site module (for www.apache.org) as well.

For the time being, I do not include additional meta and/or
link tags in generated html files. If any ASF members put
them into htmls under site module, I'll follow them - precedent.

Might it be possible for us to add links to
http://jakarta.apache.org/LICENSE
from each generated htmls?? I think this would be enough.
Use META tag.
(e.g. meta name=license value=http://jakarta.apache.org/LICENSE/)
Perhaps this can be easily done by editing /xdocs/stylesheets/site.vsl

What would you say?

What would happen if who ever said they would step up here was crossing

It's not like everything would grind to a halt.
