Note well:
Methinks that what motivates these companies' wish not to
work with the LGPL, is its possible inconsistency with
content control -- Microsoft's deliverable for the old world
publishers, part of the .NET plan in my very perspicacious
imagination. They're just not saying it at this juncture,
and are instead (knowingly or not) playing a part in a M$
scheme to defame the GPL.
