Dependency plugin to deploy the apache license..

["Brian E. Fox" <br...@reply.infinity.nu>]

That's a good point. I use it for similar purposes in my corp builds. We
would need to package up the license into an artifact and deploy it.
Then we can unpack it before the war plugin executes.

I keep wondering if short term, the dependency plugin itself could do 
this.   We deploy a "maven-licenses.jar" which contains the apache 
license and the notice and we configure the plugins parent pom to always

use the dependency to unpack that to the appropriate META-INF dir.
That 
may be the simplest solution short term until the whole license
injection stuff is done.
