Description

The page

http://commons.apache.org/license.html

displays incorrectly as a single column rather than as left hand navigation with content on the right.

The HTML Title says: "Commons Build Plugin - Project License" which looks wrong.

The Overview says:

"Typically the licenses listed for the project are that of the project itself, and not of dependencies."

which does not seem very helpful - how does one distinguish the atypical cases?

Anyway, surely ALL commons code is released under the AL license (1.0 or 2.0).

Also, why have a separate copy of the license? Surely it would be better to link to the ASF version at:
