AFAIK: LGPL/GPL requires much more - you must provide sources and all other artifacts (e.g other jars which might not be in ibiblio) + build scripts which are needed to compile given project. So bundling java sources inside a jar buys you nothing. And I do agree with jason: we need just another artifact type for distributing java sources.
