It has been awhile since I've looked at the Jython source code, but in 2011 I identified discrepancies between what was in http://www.jython.org/license.html and what was actually shipped. Jim Baker's comment pretty much covers it. You might want to use scanning software to look for other licenses. Awhile back I think I used Fossology (http://www.fossology.org/projects/fossology) I'm not sure how active it is. For the Ptolemy project, I have a class that looks for certain classes using reflection and if that class is present, then a link to license file is added. This information is used to create a html file. See http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptolemyII/ptII10.0/copyright.htm and http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptolemyII/ptII10.0/ptII/ptolemy/actor/gui/GenerateCopyrights.java
