I just had a look at the frameworks which were missing COPYING.LIB files. The 
status is:

- kf5umbrella: no files with a copyright header. Since the licensing policies 
say CMake files should be BSD, should we license the whole framework under the 
BSD license?

- kmediaplayer: all the code is X11. Should we license the whole framework 
under X11?

- plasma-framework: this framework uses multiple licenses, but majority is 
LGPL (this is the case for many other frameworks). Should we use a LGPL 2.1 
COPYING.LIB file?
