If you did this then I think that there's an easy way to solve this
problem. Since you have a public license, revert the commenting and
then add the license in a comment in the plugin section (together with
some boilerplate [1]). This will ensure that anyone who runs the build
will posses the license needed. (I can't do this since I don't have a
public license and can't obtain one any more). Give a detailed
explanation in the commit message and link to a JIRA.
Sound like a plan?
