... And the Creative Commons link is now dead.  CC-LGPL apparently is no
longer a thing.

Regarding the LGPL version, section 13 of the CC-LGPL allows the user to
choose any version of the LGPL if the work does not specify a
version--which is the case with the Object Collection's required license
text.

While the CC-LGPL remains valid for existing contributions, the GNU-LGPL
and a similar license will be offered going forward.  Stay tuned...
