Hi John, I can't say I was an expert for the Maven plugin, quite the opposite, but I'll try.

Once it is detected it doesn't mean it is approved. You have to perform both steps documented at <http://incubator.apache.org/rat/apache-rat-plugin/examples/custom-license.html> > 2.

Honestly I don't know enough about Maven's resource selection process but I think only pattern based includes/excludes are possible for the plugin. > 3. useEclipseDefaultExcludes while including subProjects - it looks > like this successfully ignores the .project, etc. files in teh root of > the project, but it does not ignore these files in the subprojects.

It would be good if you could open a JIRA ticket (even better if it contained a testcase, and the usual stuff you tell people who report bugs on Thrift ;-) > Sorry to just start hurling questions your way, No, please keep bringing them here.
