dom4j:dom4j is very old (released 5/2005, https://dom4j.github.io/) and it does not have a proper license specified in its pom. This results in our build to system to fail when checking licenses. We work around this to exclude dom4j:dom4j from both hibernate-core and hibernate-spatial and instead add a dependency to org.dom4j:dom4j which is new (2.1.0 released 9/2017), provides the same object model and have a proper license specified in its pom.
It would be great if hibernate-core/hibernate-spatial (and any other hibernate artifacts) move to the new version (org.dom4j:dom4j) too.
