Claude Warren commented on RAT-110:
---
[~pottlinger] I believe that this may be fixed in 0.16.1 where you can create a
configuration file that specifies what license families to accept or reject.
run the command line version and pass the --help for a list of command line
options. I believe that the license inclusion/exclusion is implemented in the
Maven plugin as well.
[~kwin] I believe your suggestion is also implemented in 0.16.1 where you can
specify no default licenses.

> Currently rat searches for ASLed files. In order to broaden the usage of this
> tool I'd like to add a new maven configuration option that allows the
> definition of a target license.
> This license has to exist in RAT and changes the output of the rat report but
> does not change the default behaviour for backwards compatibility.
