Hi,

In general, it is best to have ASF headers on all possible files. That way if 
they become separated from the source bundle, people will know what license 
it’s under and where it comes from. (Also see [3]) People reviewing releases 
are less likely to ask if these are 3rd party files. The policy [1] does list 
some files that don’t require a header but pom files are not in that list. [2] 
However given the files are autogenerated they would probably not be covered by 
copyright and not need a header.

Kind Regards,
Justin
