It depends on what you mean by "lack of a license". I think what most people (myself included) would like to see for a demo script is "this file is in the public domain". That is not exactly a "license", but it roughly means "use this however you want without worrying about any restrictions, not even attribution requirements". I do not think the LGPL generally makes sense (literally) for such scripts: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl.html If public domain is uncomfortable, then perhaps MIT or BSD would be comfortable. <URL:http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.html> Of course, s/he who has the copyright chooses the license.
