license compliance/consistency using maven #276

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

The uimaFIT project uses the [http://incubator.apache.org/rat/ Release Audit 
Tool] which "is a tool to improve accuracy and efficiency when checking 
releases." We should spend some time learning what kinds of goodness are 
provided by this tool - but in particular I am interested in looking at the 
dependencies in ClearTK and making sure that their licenses are consistent with 
our usage and redistribution in a BSD licensed project like ours.

There is a generic license checker plugin for Maven that you can use. We use 
that for the GPL modules in Uby.

See here:

http://code.google.com/p/uby/source/browse/de.tudarmstadt.ukp.uby/trunk/pom.xml#
185

I use a hidden file in the gpl modules containing the expected license header 
to activate and configure the plugin. The plugin can check the presence of any 
arbitrary license header text.

I don't know if it has support for dependencies as well.
