Excuse me, Sebastian, this page lists the LGPL under Category X. X for "must not
apply to any software within an Apache product". And you find that "not
particularly restrictive"? I'm a bit puzzled now, to say the least.

Anyway, I didn't mean to kick off yet another discussion about including JCIFS
in Apache or not. I think all committers agree that we avoid the hell of
problems by doing such an integration outside of Apache.

products, although they may be listed as system requirements or
distributed elsewhere as optional works."

Seems to me that it should not be too difficult to make JCIFS an optional work.
