I'd like to voice my support for putting shared jabber code under the LGPL
rather than the GPL.  The LGPL really is designed for such a thing (after
all, the first L used to stand for "library", before it was rechristened
"lesser"), and it would speed up adoption among commercial developers.  I
think that things like zlib would have been accepted much more slowly had
they been subjected to something like the full GPL.

Just my $0.02.
