Since these are generated files, must they have license headers? We had a recent discussion on this on the legal-discuss list. To quote Roy: [1]

We don't require headers on generated files because they are a pain
in the butt to generate. Headers are not required to preserve copyright,
so there is no "legal" reason to provide them at all.  The reason we do
provide them is to inform the users that we have given them permission
to do Apache Licensed things with the code that copyright would (normally)
prevent them from doing.  In other words, the header is just us being
nice to our users (and hopefully reducing future FAQs).

Regards,
- Dan

They were in svn before the release has been performed by
the maven plugin.    They still are present in the branch that
was used to release this version.  Unfortunately, it seems
to be a maven bug :(

Cheers,
