In theory yes, but that info is often not reliable as people don't include up to date license info in their poms. I generally use mvn dependency:tree to see all dependencies and look for the ones that are not well-known. What's important for ESME at this stage I think, is to realize that when adding new dependencies people should make sure their license is ok (including transitive dependencies shown by mvn dependency:tree), and update the LICENSE/NOTICE files when needed. -Bertrand
