Files in question:
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/LICENSE?rev=1.4&view=auto
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-tomcat-5/LICENSE?rev=1.1.1.1&view=auto

Looking at CVS, it looks like some other jakarta projects have also had (differenet) typo problems and also fixed their LICENSE files so I guess the change is OK as long as it gets in sync with http://www.apache.org/LICENSE

You bet :-) Fiddling with the license, no matter how trivial, should be
checked, double checked, triple checked and approved first :-)

So what is the error ? I read on bug id #10286:


The LICENSE file contains a small grammatical error in the first
condition.  The word 'notice' is incorrectly repeated.


From the license (1.1) file (http://www.apache.org/LICENSE):

* 1. Redistributions of source code must retain the above copyright * notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer.

What is the incorrect repeat ?
