[jira] [Created] (LEGAL-308) License files in shaded jar files

Stephan Ewen created LEGAL-308:
----------------------------------

             Summary: License files in shaded jar files
                 Key: LEGAL-308
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-308
             Project: Legal Discuss
          Issue Type: Question
            Reporter: Stephan Ewen


It is a common pattern in many projects to use the Maven shade plugin to build a fat-jar / uberjar with dependencies that need to be "relocated" to avoid dependency version conflicts.

When these dependencies have a License like BSD (that requires inclusion of the license when redistributing binary versions of the dependency) is it required to put that license into the shaded jar file as well?

(my assumption is yes, just wanted to check)
