|well all I can say is you probably did not convey to them an acurate
|representation of the situation. You solved the problem of whether other
|libraries can link to jBoss but there still remains the problem of whether
|jBoss can link to other non-GPL compatable libraries. As it stands an
|unmodified LGPL can not - you choose to ignore this and link against a
|variety of different libraries that are not GPL compatable. 
|
|Changing to LGPL is almost irrelevent as it does not solve any of the
|issues that have been discussed on this list - again it just ignores them.
|If you want to doo this and really think this solves the problem then more
|power to you. Hope you don't ever have to go to court.

|Cheers,
