[jira] [Created] (RAT-125) Support applied ASL20 license headers, including checking for required copyright header line

Ate Douma created RAT-125:
-----------------------------

             Summary: Support applied ASL20 license headers, including checking for required copyright header line
                 Key: RAT-125
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-125
             Project: Apache Rat
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.9
            Reporter: Ate Douma
             Fix For: 0.9
         Attachments: RAT-125.patch

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.

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