You are of course right that it is (slightly) easier to fullfill the LGPL if you provide dynamic libraries instead of linking static libraries but we agree that in both cases it is possible to fullfill the requirements. But I wonder now if there is a reason that your next sentence speaks about the GPL: Don't you agree that it makes no difference if you link GPL'd libraries statically or dynamically?
