But it's the ibiblio.org who is storing distributing jars for us, and
AFAIK they have no problem with GPL/LGPL. The real question IMO is:
Is code that depends on (uses) GPL/LGPL libraries allowed to go into
ASF repositories? How does copile & link-time depending on a library
affecting 'derived work' status of source code? I'm no expert on the
issue but I think that linking against LGPL library does not make your
code LGPL, but linking against GPL library does.

Can someone more experineced in this explain?

R.

PS. I know that sticking with ASF license is the best approach for
staying out of trouble.
