README.distro
Regarding the license, upstream has confirmed that the current license is LGPL v2.1 or later. Also, the source code is really the final say on this, and it says "GNU Lesser General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version." Either way, Fedora spec files don't distinguish between v2.1 and v2, so this is specified as LGPLv2+ for the spec file.

You are correct, the COPYING file is correct (LGPL v2.1 or later applies). I will change the README file to reflect that in the next release of Judy. ..." - Chuck Anderson <cra@wpi.edu>
