I'm one of the maintainer's of the JMagick project - I don't see a reason why anyone would object to a dual LGPL / Apache License.
I'll check with the JMagick community. > wrote a small web program to resize images outside of Lenya so > hopefully users will upload an image that is more appropriate for use > on the web.

Using cocoon limits you to resizing jpeg's whereas many more formats would be supported using a JM approach. Also creating on the fly animations, rounding the corners of images, merging one image with another - that's the sort of varied functionality I am proposing.
