Based on Razor-Qt licensing policies that I read, the author of Razor-Qt
prefer LGPL over GPL.
How the merge of LXDE and Razor-Qt will affect the future of LXDE-Qt? Will
it also prefer LGPL over GPL.
I suggest both developers should consider it earlier before everything get
more complicated.
My opinion is to prefer LGPL over GPL, as it will help wider acceptance for
LXDE-Qt especially from corporate support that may interested with LXDE or
from non-Linux operating system that avoid GPL as possible (e.g. FreeBSD).
Just for information, there are many notable projects which switch their
license from GPL to more relaxed license : LibVLC, GEGL, ApacheOpenOffice,
SDL, PySide, etc.
