While the POM has a place for licenses, not everyone fills it out. So
I think the idea of an automated system for this is still a dream, for
now at least.

You could always file bugs with your various dependencies to ask them
to add the license element to their pom file. So the next time they
push a new version out, it would contain the license. Rinse and repeat
for all dependencies including transitive ones. ;-)
