Hi,

GitHub recently introduced a feature where it tries to figure out how many
other projects depend on you project. This is shown in the UI with a "Used
By" drop down button. When clicking that button one can copy the dependency
declaration. In case of Commons Lang this will generate [1]:

<dependency>
  <groupId>commons-lang</groupId>
  <artifactId>commons-lang</artifactId>
  <version>[VERSION]</version>
</dependency>

This is incorrect since the coordinates for the 3.x line are
org.apache.commons:commons-lang3:3.x
I think we should find out how we can fix this. Maybe infra can fix it?
Furthermore we should check all our GitHub mirrors whether they have the
correct coordinates for our components.

Regards,
Benedikt
