I think such a link is fine. It's also possible to configure a 'localLicenseFiles' mapping in the IP log mojo so that no attempt is made to download a license file. Can you tell me a bit more how <localLicenseFiles> is supposed to be used? I had a brief look at the EclipseIpInfoMojo code [1], but couldn't figure it out. :-( For now, I have simply created src/main/resources/about.html and src/main/resources/about_files/LICENSE.txt based on what was in the pre-EBR org.dom4j bundle. But maybe that's not the EBR Way, as I get a warning: > [WARNING] Found existing about.html file at ... Please set the force property to true in order to update/override it (eg. '-Dforce=true' via command line). Likewise for the ip_log.xml. This seems to suggest that these files are supposed to be generated *during* the build rather than checked into Git. Is this correct? But settings -Dforce=true doesn't do anything (like downloading a license file).
