TAVERNA-868 is a proposed fix for this.
My confusion was that the product, the output of a release, is (c)
Apache but the code inside it is not.
Sampling several apache projects - at least ones that actually have a
NOTICE in the top of the repo - the following form looks better.
----
Apache Taverna Maven Parent

Portions of this software were originally based on the following:

These have been licensed to the Apache Software Foundation under a
software grant.
This product includes software developed at
The Apache Software Foundation (http://www.apache.org/).

It might be arguable about whether the "originally" paragraph are needed
but the U of Manchester is so significant, and it ties it to pre-Apache
Taverna, that I think it is worth it. other projects have it (Jena,
Marmotta)
