RAT Maven doc issue

[sebb <se...@gmail.com>]

The page
http://creadur.apache.org/rat/apache-rat-plugin/rat-mojo.html

says of the <licenses> tag:

"Specifies the licenses to accept. By default, these are added to the
default licenses, unless you set addDefaultLicenseMatchers to true."

This should surely say " ... unless you set addDefaultLicenseMatchers to false."

Agreed?

Have fixed the bug in SVN and on the website.

Unfortunately the change from true to false is buried in the EOL
changes that were applied for me.

According to my experience [1] licenses added using <licenses> tag allows
to recognize licences, but it not added to allowed after recognition.
Adding <licenseFamilies> completely replaces the list of allowed licenses
(not adds)

+1

Most probably more documentation is needed in case projects are not 
using Apache-licenses only.
