License file collision with android. #209

Hi all,

Apparently the license file LICENSE.txt is located in the root of the jar file 
and on android I got the following error:

[2014-06-20 15:13:16 - sbe-android-test] Error generating final archive: Found 
duplicate file for APK: LICENSE.txt
Origin 1: C:\Users\sixi\androidProjects\sbe-android-test\libs\junit-4.11.jar
Origin 2: 
C:\Users\sixi\androidProjects\sbe-android-test\libs\hamcrest-all-1.3.jar

I also posted this error to the junit guys that by mistake put in their jar 
file the license form hamcrest. (https://github.com/junit-team/junit/issues/627)

My question would be: is there a reason for the file to reside under the root 
of the jar file? Can't it be moved inside META-INF folder?

Thanks
