Funny you should mention this. We working on making this automatic view the
maven-remote-resources-plugin and the apache-jar-resource-bundle. There are
versions available that you could use, but new versions should be going up
for a vote today that fix a lot of issues. [1]
Basically, you can add:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-remote-resources-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.0-alpha-2-SNAPSHOT</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>process</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<resourceBundles>
<resourceBundle>org.apache:apache-jar-resource-bundle:1.1-SNAPSHOT</resourceBundle>
<resourceBundle>org.apache:apache-incubator-disclaimer-resource-bundle:1.0</resourceBundle>
</resourceBundles>
<properties>
<addLicense>true</addLicense>
</properties>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
To your build plugins list and it will automatically add the LICENSE file and
create a NOTICE file based on your dependencies. Since UIMA is an incubator
project, the second resource bundle listed above will add the incubator
disclaimer as well. (for right now, you'll need the snapshot repository
added. Again, hoping to have releases of the plugin in the next couple
days.)
This is all fairly new stuff. If you have problems with it, let us know and
log bugs at [2].
