That's not a question for the forums, its a question for the lawyers. ;-)
IANAL but, the relevant part is here:

So we should have our own copy of the license in the same place
as where the library is distributed.
Maven conventions are just that (design by exception).
The conventions don't work in all circumstances. :-)
Just copy it to lgpl-2.1. Don't rename it, otherwise you'll invalidate all the
