Roman Zenka created MNGSITE-148:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: In pom reference, use full name for the Apache 2 license 
to be consistent with projects "in the wild"
                 Key: MNGSITE-148
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNGSITE-148
             Project: Maven Project Web Site
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Roman Zenka
            Priority: Trivial


At http://maven.apache.org/pom.html#Licenses , the listed name for The Apache 
Software License, Version 2.0 is "Apache 2".

Since people (like me) will copy&paste that snippet into their project, it 
makes sense to use a more appropriate version that matches major projects seen 
in the wild.

The proposed text is:


        <license>
            <name>The Apache Software License, Version 2.0</name>
            <url>http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.txt</url>
            <distribution>repo</distribution>
            <comments>A business-friendly OSS license</comments>
        </license>
