@mengxr given that the JNILoader will likely be loading proprietary native
implementations of BLAS/LAPACK, I consider it to be a moot point... but if the
Apache foundation want to take an exclusive religious stance against Stallman,
then I'll have to dual license to comply with your objectives.
(I really don't understand why Apache have a problem with LGPL... it's a
very sensible license that ensure changes are put back into the original
project and **is** "commercially friendly")
See the `netlib-java` website for further license information: in a
nutshell, the bits you want are MIT since they derive from the original
BLAS/LAPACK reference implementation.
