Some reasons to not use the LGPL for libraries are already well known, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/why-not-lgpl.html>. Having LGPLv2 only libraries in GNOME would be problematic if GNOME wants to depend on LGPLv3 libraries in the future, which I consider inevitable. /Simon _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
