The list nodes in the current license list contains only text nodes consisting of spaces. Do we have to insert such spaces? Or just ignore them?

Since this is in a template, it probably doesn't matter since the matching algorithm ignores white space when comparing. I'm leaning towards including the spaces since they were in the original XML.
