    I just looked at the RAT report referenced in [1] and would like to
    note a few things. The XML files are generated by Cayenne Modeler and
    should not have the license headers. (If Cayenne Modeler
    automatically added the license, anyone who created a model in Cayenne
    would have the Apache License in their potentially proprietary models,
    which they would not like). The DTD and CSS could certainly have the
    license added as comments. I'm a little torn on Artist.java, though.
    It was initially generated by Cayenne Modeler, but can be customized
    by the end-user (will not be overwritten). In this case, Artist.java
    does have a little bit of custom code added to it. In the same
    directory is also Gallery.java and Painting.java, which also do not
    have the license added, but are just shell classes (no methods). We
    can add the license to these files (but not to the superclasses), but
    I don't know if that is a best Apache practice since the file looks
    different than what the modeler would generate (might be slightly
    confusing to someone learning Cayenne and looking at the tutorials).

    Thoughts?

    Thanks,
