Which is, I think, the core of the user's issue: lack of clarity within the
legal profession about all of this in the first place.

My takeaways:

   - NH is (definitely) licensed under LGPL
   - NH is (maybe!) licensed under LGPLv2.1
   - it might be possible to change the NH license
   - nobody has any clear (legal) idea about how to change the NH license
   - its not clear that there is any advantage (to anyone!) in changing the
   NH license
   - based on what the original questioner was wanting to do, its clear that
   at least in the confines of "common interpretation of LGPLv2.1" -- which may
   *or may not* be the license under which NH is presently covered -- they are
   not likely to run afoul of what might be the present license constraints :)

My conclusion: leave well-enough alone :P
