Yes - kind of.
Then we (rtems) should stay with the policy we had always applied:
The LGPL is not acceptable to us, because it imposes restrictions to
RTEMS and other embedded systems (static linkage), at least we don't
want to impose on users (LGPL/GPL our and their code).
I am bit surprised Jeff seems to be willing to accept the LGPL in case,
despite he had reject other similar submissions in the past. If I were
to decide, I would not accept it.
