license as html?

[André Malo <nd...@perlig.de>]

I've wrapped xml/html around the license to get a rid of the ugly 
text/plain ;-). I'm wondering if this would cause problems. Any Opinions?

uploaded the result here: <http://cvs.apache.org/~nd/manual/license.html>

For the text-only license we should use http://apache.org/LICENSE, IMO. It's
always there and always up-to-date...

I don't think we need one extra in the docs tree. There is already the
LICENSE file in the root directory and this should be sufficient.

I'm not sure, whether this document is less ugly :-)

The licence is not very capable to be transformed into html, but we need
a xml-version as basis for other transformations, e.g. when generating
pdf docs or so, or we may miss the licence there which is much "uglier".

If we need a text-only version for legal reasons (don't know), we should
keep one seperate and add a note with a link at the html version.
