Philipp Ottlinger commented on RAT-206:
---------------------------------------

Sorry for the confusion I may have caused.

You are right; RAT does not recognize CC licenses by default - in order to 
enable this we need to know what to scan for.

Therefore I'd like to know which text snippet is mandatory in order to be 
properly CC-licensed?

Can you answer that question?

Apart from that it's rather easy to add this license. I just want to make sure 
we add the correct license text to look for.

> Add support for Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 2.5 and Creative

> It would be very nice if support for the "Creative Commons Attribution-Share 
> Alike 2.5" and "Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0" licenses could

> Background: The documentation of the incubating Groovy Project is licensed

> [https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#cc-sa] this is o.k. but, Rat does 
> not seem to recognize the license.
