Illegal distribution of binaries by Gump

I've noticed that Gump distributes (via gump.covalent.net)  several jar 
files which appear to violate the license agreements found in the 
projects.

- xmlunit: The license requires:
"* Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above
   copyright notice, this list of conditions and the following
   disclaimer in the documentation and/or other materials provided
   with the distribution.
"

- Various xdoclet jars:
"Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above copyright notice, 
this
list of conditions and the following disclaimer in the documentation 
and/or
other materials provided with the distribution."

- Werkz:
" 2. Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the
    above copyright notice, this list of conditions and the
    following disclaimer in the documentation and/or other
    materials provided with the distribution."

I'm sure there are many more.

Can someone please comment?

Good catch.  I'll correct, and review the others for compliance.
