Those messages are part of a specification but the copyright of the file is
Apache 2.0. This is like using <h1></h1> tags in a document, or printing a
novel on DIN A4 sized paper. The tags are part of the HTML language
specification but the document can be licensed under a different copyright.

Ah, I can see where the confusion stems from. I have cloned the complete
repository from

https://github.com/tdf/odftoolkit

but I did only package 

https://github.com/tdf/odftoolkit/tree/master/odfdom

as the Source link states correctly in debian/copyright.

The LICENSE in the root directory is the license file from the complete
odftoolkit repository. The relevant LICENSE file is in the odfdom directory. I
did not package ODF Validator and none of the dependencies which are mentioned
in the LICENSE file are included in this package. I have clarified this with a
comment in d/c. The whole libodfdom-java source package is under the Apache 2.0
license.

Markus
