If that's the case, I think many of the module POM files list the
following for the license info:
<licenses>
<license>
<name>Lesser General Public License (LGPL)</name>
<url>http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/lesser.txt</url>
<distribution>repo</distribution>
</license>
</licenses>
And that URL points to the v3 license, not 2.1.
