Example Plugin Configuration

In the project pom.xml add the notice plugin. The configuration below is what is used in the jasig-parent pom and should automatically be inherited by all Jasig Maven projects. This example uses a custom NOTICE template file for generation and a license mapping XML file to lookup license information about poorly defined dependencies.
