I think I saw that a couple of time in this thread already. GDAL is not LGPL,

The gdal/ecw case is particularly complex, as the ECW licence changes

I think there are no erdas libraries in the gdal-ecw package, it is just
a "bridge" (sorry if it is not the right term) between gdal and the
erdas libraries that t
Ops. How QGis can use GDAL which uses ECW?!
1 - GDAL is LGPL
2 - it's imported by QGis, so it doesn't use QGis but is used by...
3 - osgeo4w bundles gdal-ecw DLL

I premit that I've already chosen a solution to bypass these issues: one,
common library and two plugins, one for qgis and one for arcpy. The plugins
will interact through pickling, sharing a common data structure from the
common library. This is the easiest solution for me to deploy (no servers
