Please correct me if I am wrong, because I am not an attorney and to understand the GPL or L-GPL licenses you almost need a law degree.
The reason I said "GPL infections" is because from my understanding the GPL and even the L-GPL requires you provide source code to anyone who wants it, and thereby “infects” the application. I understand you can include L-GPL code in commercial applications, but you must supply the source code to paying customers for the infected application. The L-GPL it would seem prevents anyone from trying to hide the source code through encryption or compiling unless they supply the source code. Again if I am wrong, PLEASE correct me, but the above is my understanding.
