Description

This JIRA is for changing the main pom.xml:

            <plugin>
                <groupId>com.google.code.maven-license-plugin</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-license-plugin</artifactId>
+                <inherited>false</inherited>
                <configuration>
-                    <header>${module.relative.path}src/etc/header.txt</header>
+                    <header>src/etc/header.txt</header>
                    <quiet>false</quiet>
                    <failIfMissing>true</failIfMissing>
                    <aggregate>true</aggregate>
                    <includes>
-                        <include>src/**</include>
+                        <include>**/src/**</include>
                        <include>**/test/**</include>
                    </includes>
                    <excludes>

Random testing (removing license info on files in submodules) seemed to show this plugin working still. This will enable modules to be more easily created/moved around if necessary.

I think it's still a good idea to run the license plugin on mvn install in the default profile to give a heads up before a bad build.
