In general, I think the LGPL is a pretty tough license to stick to - Surely the only management difference with the LGPL is that you share less source.it's a lot easier to fulfil the terms of the GPL. If your changes are minimal you can probably submit them back to the project maintainer. Most other obligations of the GPL happen naturally if you don't interfere with the build tools. Sam |
