It is a requirement to release the binaries under AL2. You can refer to 
https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html for a list of compatible and 
incompatible licenses. LGPL is Category-X (not allowed) as it places 
restrictions on the larger work.

It's fine with me to re-use the existing pattern if others don't mind.

We can open a ticket with [Apache Infra](https://infra.apache.org/). Would you 
like to open a PR first?

It's fine to use external services as long as the project maintainers (PPMC) 
control the usage and the published artifacts are compliant with the ASF 
polices (for example, don't contain LGPL compontents).
