  IMO, duplicating the license files is not necessary as long as there are no file refering to COPYING.LIB. This could be done now.
  
  > - How to handle the unneeded empty lines in the license file? --> the license files must not be changed according to https://reuse.software/faq/, thus I created an upstream issue at SPDX (https://github.com/spdx/license-list-data/issues/60). but I am afraid that we have to wait for this issue to be fixed before we can update the license files on our side. Judging from experience, this will take quite some time and according to the REUSE guidelines we are doing everything correctly.
  
  Let's keep them until https://github.com/spdx/LicenseListPublisher/issues/61 is fixed.
