indeed i do still feel and believe that. but i'm relatively moderate and LGPL
does allow that - but also limits the kind of freedom. i am much more in a "i
dont give a crap - as long as i have code and can change it and ship it... it
doesn't bother me" mode - and lgpl does satisfy that... but bsd + advertising
does say closely what i feel about the code.
