--------------------------------------------------------------
I fully agree. If Expat was GPL or LGPL licensed the
libSpiff library [1] could not have been released under
the BSD license. The Xiph.Org Foundation releases all its
libraries under the BSD license to enable widespread adoption,
also by vendors that are still afraid of Open Source.
