Right now though we require all files to have license headers we do not run the check to verify this by default.
It kept dinging me until I turned it on by default in Maven core. Someone currently trying to contribute has no idea this is a requirement and is not told so because it doesn't run by default. If it's required how about we just run all the time everywhere? I would like to change the POMs so that it always runs. Having to run RAT separately is a usability fail. The chances of anyone contributing knowing they have to run it are pretty close to zero. Anyone see a reason not to always run it?
