The goal is to combine the Download Licenses Mojo of the license-maven-plugin <https://www.mojohaus.org/license-maven-plugin/download-licenses-mojo.html> with Docusaurus in combination with versioned documentation.

Our solution is a folder structure like this where may contain downloaded artifacts such as (works) or (does not work).

This does not work, as plugins such as the plugin ignore files by intention:

<https://github.com/facebook/docusaurus/blob/fa8ae13e668fcbc0481ce10c0a734e2a5b397293/packages/docusaurus-mdx-loader/src/remark/transformLinks/index.ts#L185-L187>

It is more than that, though, as files are not even copied to the folder (unless, according to the documentation, they are placed in the folder).

We tried with a Docusaurus plugin to manually copy the files, but gave up, as this requires (for versioned documentation) to follow the same strategies (like using folder) as applied by the versioned docs feature.

Note, that controlling the output of the Download Licenses Mojo is possible, but not feasible (e.g., because or not applied to file extensions).

For now, we just gave up linking HTML files. Supporting it "out of the box" by Docusaurus would be great... or any advice, how to add a Docusaurus plugin to support this.
