Descrizione
A recent scan of about.html in project org.osgi.service.cdi-1.0.0.jar detected apache-1.1 with a score of 73.68 using apache-1.1_37_1.RULE. The about.html file is very clearly a declaration of the apache-2.0 license (also detected, correctly). I believe that the problem is probably caused by the lack of requiring specific text in the RULE. Here is the relevant text in apache-1.1_37_1.RULE:
`Apache Software License 1.1 (available at http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE`
I think that the problem could be resolved by requiring a match on `1.1` or perhaps even `Apache Software License 1.1` which would avoid the false positive on the following matched text in the about.html file:
"matched_text":"available at http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-"
There is nothing about apache-1.1 in the actual matched text.
