BSD would mean "no need to provide source for modifications".

LGPL in the context of templates seems to mean "maybe you need to
provide source for just header modifications, maybe for all the code
that invokes the header to instantiate those templates, consult your
lawyer to be sure".

Thanks.

I'll probably make parallel.h more libMesh-agnostic right away (in
roughly the same manner as our GetPot fork), but only bother adding
the new license if I actually get some feedback *after* outside use
that the API is worth advertising independently.
