                 Key: OPENJPA-880
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-880
             Project: OpenJPA
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: build / infrastructure
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Donald Woods
            Assignee: Donald Woods
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.0.0


Update the build to use the maven-remote-resources-plugin to generate the ASF 
required LICENSE/NOTICE files.
This will involve:
1) updating the root pom to setup the maven-remote-resources-plugin
2) moving the existing LICENSE/NOTICE files from openjpa-project to the source 
root dir
3) removing other LICENSE/NOTICE files from the source, as the plugin will 
generate them
4) add LICENSE.vm and/or NOTICE.vm files for artifact unique legal requirements 
(like XSD notices and/or unique copyright statements)
Afterwards, we'll only have to add/update the LICENSE.vm/NOTICE.vm files for a 
specific module if we add new code that contains new notices, as the plugin 
will automatically include the LICENSE/NOTICE text from included dependencies 
as needed.

This will be an updated patch, based on earlier work done by David Jencks for 
OPENJPA-772.
