These Creative Commons Attribution files should be fine, because of the 
[exception|http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-b]:

For small amounts of source that is directly consumed by the ASF product at 
runtime in source form, and for which that source is unmodified and unlikely to 
be changed anyway (say, by virtue of being specified by a standard), inclusion 
of appropriately labeled source is also permitted. An example of this is the 
web-facesconfig_1_0.dtd, whose inclusion is mandated by the JSR 127: JavaServer 
Faces specification.

We are using them as vocabularies and they are "unlikely to be changed anyway" 
- what would be the purpose of changing Dublin Core or FOAF vocabulary when the 
whole purpose of those is to have common definitions of the terms they define?

> There are some licensing issues:
> - Several items [3][4][5][6] are licensed under W3C document license, this is 
> not a category A license and looks like they can only be included in binary 
> release [2]. (i.e. Category B but it's not listed) You may need to clarify 
> this on legal discuss.
> - Files [8][9][16][17][18][19][20] licensed under CC-BY-3 can only be 
> included in a binary release. [10]
> - I assume CC-A [11][12] would also need to be handled the same way.
> - It is unclear how [13] is licensed.
> - Looks like [14][15] are not licensed under a Category A license. Again 
> probably needs to be discussed on legal discuss.
> The LICENSE and NOTICE in ./taverna-tavlang-tool/src/main/resources/META-INF/ 
> may need updating, looks like the contents don’t match the top level license 
> and year is incorrect.
