But LGPL and GPL are very different licenses. Also, while I don't have time to participate in yet another debate on the topic, the GPL does not in any way restrict users. Using GPL code means you promise *not* to impose restrictions. Feel free to use whatever license you want, but please do not make inaccurate claims about them.

I suppose it depends on how you define user. Someone who simply uses GPL code without distributing it would not face restrictions. However, if you use GPL code in a project and want to distribute it, then you also have to license that project as GPL.
