As you mentioned the legal issue, can I speak up my point of view?
(superfluous to some extent)

Please see,

http://jakarta.apache.org/ecs/index.html
http://jakarta.apache.org/jetspeed/site/index.html
http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/index.html

and the bottom of these pages.

Why do their 'copyright' not include the year 2003?

These projects are mothballed, stopped their activities?
Or, the committers of each projects just forgot to append the "2003"??
Or, they do not know how to???

Next: about the new logo of jakarta: 
('Logo' is one of the most important intellectual properties
for most of the companies, generally speaking)

Most of the jakarta-commons subprojects and mavenized projects
still seem to stick to use older jakarta-logo (except jelly), not
knowing the fact that new jakarta-logo had been created last year
(Oh, this goes for jakarta-slide site, too).
Partially most of the developers/committers do not pay much attention
to their sites, to say nothing of the outside of their sites. For new
comers, even 'jakarta' seems to divide against itself at a glance,
I suppose.

Can non-committers submit patches for these (binary), and do these
actions make sense?

Are these above allowable 'diversity'?

I do not intend to offend anyone. Just putting up my 
ingenuous questions what came to my mind a long time ago....
