I agree that each module may have a different set of licenses. My proposal was 
not to applies to same licenses to all modules. It was rather to provide the 
license texts in a common directory (namely 'licenses'). Then, each module 
would 
only provide a list of *references* to the licenses they use. This approach 
seem 
to fit well in Maven, since there is a section in pom.xml file specially for 
licenses, so we can list there the URLs (not the full texts) to the relevant 
licenses for each module.
