[jira] [Created] (MPOM-48) Incorrect name for Apache License in

Hervé Boutemy created MPOM-48:
---------------------------------

             Summary: Incorrect name for Apache License in <license>
                 Key: MPOM-48
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPOM-48
             Project: Maven POMs
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: asf
    Affects Versions: ASF-14
            Reporter: Hervé Boutemy
            Assignee: Hervé Boutemy
             Fix For: ASF-15


The actual <license> [1] section contains
<licenses>
  <license>
    <name>The Apache Software License, Version 2.0</name>
    <url>http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.txt</url>
    <distribution>repo</distribution>
    <comments>A business-friendly OSS license</comments>
  </license>
</licenses>
The <name> entry is wrong; the word "Software" must be removed. Probably best to remove "The" as well, i.e. it should be:
<name>Apache License, Version 2.0</name>

see http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNGSITE-191
