Looks like there was a lapse in our release evaluation procedure. I  
just tried running rat tool and found a bunch of modeler Java files  
without Apache license headers.

Also found a file contributed earlier by third-party that seems to  
have been taken from a Sun Java Swing tutorial. Can't find it on the  
Sun Java site anymore, but here is the clone of that tutorial on some  
random site [1], and I am pretty sure it came from Sun. When I applied  
that contribution patch, there was no way to tell it is not the  
original work of the contributor, but when I was doing the review  
today, I noticed some strange comments in the source, and stumbled on  
that tutorial. Since Sun has specific license terms for redistribution  
of their tutorial source [2] and StringTransferHandler is pretty  
trivial, I just rewrote it, and deleted the original.

So now we are clear to go with RC2, but we may need to add the rat  
plugin to the Maven build going forward.
