The problem with dual licensing is the number of people that have committed to the project over the years, we would have to get approval from all of the entities that committed code under LGPL and get them to agree to shift it to or add additional licenses. If they are only worried about including the JNI code, we could look at releasing that under dual license (since it is the only Java portion), do you think that would meet their needs?
