can ivy read license information from poms?

I'm running ivy:report and I see that modules form our repository that 
have only poms do not list the license information (even though the 
information is in the pom).

I searched the list archives and found this:

http://www.mail-archive.com/ivy-user@ant.apache.org/msg01388.html

including this quote:

"One thing I realize is that it seems we don't parse this information in 
poms, so you won't get license information when you use poms to describe 
your modules. I'll fix this. Xavier "

Can anyone tell me if this has yet been fixed?

thanks,
Valerie

Are you sure that Ivy does find the pom?
If I'm not mistaken, you can see that in the console log when running Ant in 
verbose mode.

I'm not that familiar with Maven poms, so I'm not sure of the parent pom 
terminology. But a developer on my team uploaded this JAR to the Artifactory 
server, let the pom auto-generate, and then pasted in the license info for that 
module. As I understand it, this is the pom for the actual module/JAR (called 
"SecondString").

Is that a concrete pom of your module, or is it a parent pom?
I've looked at the Ivy code and it seems that if the license information from 
the parent pom is ignored.

It should work. Could you provide an example of such a pom where Ivy doesn't 
extract the license information?
