Re: license display in the Eclipse update site installer
It seems to me that the license displayed in the Eclipse update site installer
is typically shorter than the full Apache license, and includes a link to the
full license. I don't recall the pros/cons here.
For instance, the "short" version used in the uimaj plugins is:
Licensed to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) under one or more contributor
license agreements. See the NOTICE file distributed with this work for
additional information regarding copyright ownership. The ASF licenses this

The version used in textmarker is the full text, including the appendix on how
to apply the Apache license to other works. I think, in any case, that Appendix
should be omitted here.
This is not a blocker, in my opinion, however.

This seems wrong in several ways, as I study more how Eclipse uses these.
So ignore this :-).
See other part of this thread that discussed this further, and Jira UIMA-2636.
