Unfortunately, because it is LGPL, I don't think we can in good
conscience look at the code, because doing so probably violates the
spirit of the LGPL which says you can link with it but not reuse the
code in a non GPL/LGPL program.  Others may have a different
interpretation, and if look but don't copy is OK under the LGPL as it
is journalism (read and summarize with citation but don't plagiarize)
then its fine by me but that's not my current understanding.
