#3 GPL to LGPL

[Sebastian Pipping]

If your library is licensed under GPL
it cannot be used by LGPL-licensed libraries.
Please consider changing the license to LGPL
unless the former is your intention.

Best regards, Sebastian

Would you like to consider the "GNU General Public License with runtime exception" (RGPL)?

How do you think about the details from the following discussions?
- "(L)GPL and C++ templates issue"

- "Writing an exception to LGPL for a C++ template library"

I have no idea. As a non-lawyer I will stick
with exception-free licenses, because I can never
be sure, if they work as expected or not.
I am also afraid of using libraries with exceptions.
Not sure if I'm alone with that.

If you have the chance to talk to a lawyer maybe
that would be best.
