Apache 2.0 License Compliance Question

I've been using Selenium RC and Selenium Grid for a while now.  I work on an Apache project called Open for Business (ofbiz.org).  I have created an XML extension for Selenium RC that allows us to create data driven tests for our ofbiz applications.  I would like to make this extension available to the ofbiz community but there are some questions about the open source license for Selenium.  Apache cannot accept any libraries that are GPL or LGPL licensed.  All of the Selenium projects point to the Apache 2.0 License which is great, but I noticed there are some LGPL licensed files in the core infrastructure.

 

Here are the files that I found in a casual search:

 

cssQuery-p.js

cssQuery-level2.js

cssQuery-level3.js

cssQuery-Standard.js

cssQuery.js

xbDebug.js

strands/compiler.js

strands/strands.js

 

Are these critical to the Selenium RC Server distribution or is it possible they could be removed?

 

 

 

 

Here is some information on my extension for Selenium RC:

The code is currently hosted on Sourceforge at:

 

http://sourceforge.net/projects/seleniumxml

 

 

Thanks in advance for any help on the question.
