Umm, yes it is.  It's on line 6 and 7 of the file:

If you're going to paste RAT output into an email, at least filter it
for sanity.  There are a few files in here that legitimately need
fixing (most of them end in .java), but test files that contain
representative XML that's being parsed for test purposes shouldn't
have big license headers that are unlikely to show up in the real
world, and properties files that are two lines long and parsed at
runtime shouldn't be burdened with a license header that's multiple
times larger than they are, and both of these points have been
discussed in previous release threads for abdera.

The other comments in your mail are valid, and I'm sure James will fix
them along with the few files that do have license header problems and
reroll the zips.
