On the contrary, it was my understanding that the LGP license, though
similar in many ways to the Apache license, is incompatible. That is
one reason why the FCKeditor and TinyMCE open source editors can't be
distributed with Lenya even though they are in most ways better than
the Lenya-supplied editors. I'm just repeating what others have said,
though.
What LGP code have you found in Lenya?
hmm. are you sure you're not mixing up gpl and lgpl? the pure gpl is
incompatible afaik.

ok, these are multilicensed, so it's not a good proof, but in cocoon
there is this:
externals/cocoon_2_1_x/src/blocks/forms/resources/org/apache/cocoon/forms/resources/htmlarea/make-release.pl:#
NO WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER. READ GNU LGPL.
can anyone clarify?
