Re: License collection
Thank you all for replying. I'll try that one that Yoav Landman pointed out. -- Rui On Sat, Jan 22, 2011 at 12:07 PM, Yoav Landman yland...@gmail.com wrote: You may also want to have a look at the Artifactory license addon, which does exactly that - finds the licenses of all dependencies of a build (including searching in parent poms) with the ability to assign custom license information + generate a report with selective dependency scopes.

Re: License collection
I'm trying to automate licensing collection for my product. What I want is simple: collect (i.e. download) all licenses of my dependencies and store them in a folder. This is not as simple as you may think. How exactly do you plan to do this? Where will you download all licenses for your dependencies from? Hint: they are not necessarily stored in Central along with your jars -- this is pretty rare from what I've seen, unless they are packaged along with the jar file (which is also not particularly common). Does anyone know if there's a plugin that does what I'm trying to accomplish? I've heard about license-maven-plugin ( http://mojo.codehaus.org/license-maven-plugin/ ) but I couldn't even download it. This plugin is in the Sandbox, so you can't simply download and use it.
