Ok, but you guys still need to fix:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cocoon/branches/BRANCH_2_1_X/legal/rhino1.5r4-continuations-R26.jar.license.txt
and
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cocoon/trunk/commons/legal/src/main/resources/rhino-1.6R2.jar.license.txt

And does the user get an notification when Rhino is downloaded through
Maven as required by 
http://people.apache.org/~cliffs/3party.html#options-inproduct?
