Following up with a few points Sandro brought up while testing the previous
release candidate...

Actually, this is the recommended approach (as per a discussion in the
general@ list several months back).  Otherwise, users wouldn't know which
licenses applied to the resources.

The licenses are managed as SVN properties to make sure that we don't miss
an image.
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/pivot/infra/bin/check-svn-props.shchecks
for the existence of these properties.  Then I run a shell command to
spit out the list for each license before each release, ensuring that each
release has the most recent list of files.

Not escaping them breaks the DTD that those HTML pages use, so they must be
escaped.
