       Resolution: Won't Fix
    Fix Version/s: 2.3

As described in MCHECKSTYLE-48, the maven_checks + LICENSE.txt combination is largelly used by maven for internal use, and to avoid regression we had to force the LICENSTE.txt to point to the default, common maven licence header.

Simply changing your Licence file name / location to anything BUT "LICENSE.txt" will fix this. Beeing case sensitive, you could just rename it to "License.txt", or maybe LICENSE without "txt" extension

> I'm working on a plugin that follows the maven code conventions, but uses the MIT license instead of apache.  If I set the configLocation to "config/maven_checks.xml" then the plugin ignores the LICENSE.txt file that I put into the root directory of my project even if I set the headerLocation.
