Except, not everything is copyrightable, it has to have some creativity in it.
This particular case is not copyrightable, and slapping a copyright statement on it won't change that.
I can't disagree more. Writing a pom requires a lot of creativity.
That really depends on the jar that is being uploaded. A number of the .pom files have only a few lines in them which merely describe the jar, and perhaps point to the licence and svn etc.
IMO, these don't need a license.
This is the sort of pom that generally accompanies 3rd party libraries such as JUnit.
You have to carrefully choose the libraries with sometimes multiple possibilities, you need to choose the right versions, you have to put a scope on each one, you have to choose which one you want to inherit transitevely and which one you want to specify at first level dependencies, you will have to choose if you want to use a dependencyManagment block or not, if you want to use a prent pom or not, and I didn't talked about the profiles...
Why do you think that there is so many bad designed pom on the maven repositories ? It simply because to write a good pom you must be an artist ;-) !
Anyway, it requires creativity. For quiet a lot of project, 2 persons would probably produce 2 different pom.
