This is following the recommended way of applying (L)GPL to code, 
according to the FSF. Let's stick to that.

Note: That is not intended to be the package *name*, but the package 
key. I fixed this in the wiki (see link below).

Yes, there is a schema, see http://forge.typo3.org/issues/show/702

Code-wise, the package manager should be able to give you that information.

But: since the package key is the same as the directory a package lives 
in, this is as easy as it gets.

Ah, nay. Let people look up that stuff themselves. One exception, forgot 
to mention that earlier:
