It's worth noting that the WINE project, not long ago, abandoned

Wins is under a free licence, its LGPL and I'm almost 100% sure you
have no idea why
the licence was changed!
Anyone who has sat in on company conferences discussing what changes
would be forced because of GPL or LPGL knows that only the BSD is free,
not thje GPL. LRPL is closer, but the folks who call GPL free are
either lying or ignorant. They want to force you to do things their
way, but they don't want you to be able to call that coercion.
