> While checking on an ASL20 license header itself is supported by Apache Rat (duh), properly checking an applied ASL20 license (for usage *outside* the ASF) isn't supported yet.
> I've created an AppliedApacheSoftwareLicense20 check which does check this, using the http://apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html#apply template as template (duh).
> This header matcher itself extends a more generic CopyrightHeader matcher, which only takes care of the copyright header line validation, using a regex pattern + configurable copyright owner.
> As an example the following configuration:
>       <plugin>
>         <groupId>org.apache.rat</groupId>
>         <artifactId>apache-rat-plugin</artifactId>
>         <version>0.9-SNAPSHOT</version>
>         <configuration>
>           <licenses>
>             <license implementation="org.apache.rat.analysis.license.AppliedApacheSoftwareLicense20">
>               <copyrightOwner>FooBar \(www\.foobar\.com\)</copyrightOwner>
>             </license>
>           </licenses>
>         </configuration>
>       </plugin>
>  
> will properly match a license header like:
>    Copyright 2012 FooBar (www.foobar.com)
>    Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License");
>    you may not use this file except in compliance with the License.

>    WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or implied.
>    See the License for the specific language governing permissions and

>  
> I'll attach a patch with the two header matchers + unit tests shortly.
