Inconsistent Licensing information.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The website for this project[1] says that the code is licensed under the GNU 
Lesser GPL. The LICENSE.txt file in the released .zip file contains the LGPL 
additions to the GPL (though the GPL is not distributed with the archive so the 
license text is incomplete as distributed).

Yet, the .js files state that they are distributed under the GPL license, 
contradicting the statements above.

In my opinion (I am not a lawyer!) this makes the jquery-formatcurrency plugin 
distributable only under the GPL (since it's not clear whether the LGPL 
additional permissions are in effect).

Also, the FSF informs[2] that LGPL programs also need to distribute the text of 
the GPL since the LGPL text is just an addition and references clauses of the 
GPL.
