Ok, let me explain the issue in a finer point.
The license given in the web link you mention seems to mandate all
related work to be under the same license, which is nowhere near what
BSD means. In particular, this puts some doubt on whether I can use the
code in an LGPL project.
Can anyone shed more light on this point for me? Am I misreading
something? If it is possible to put code into an LGPL project, what is
the requirement?
