Hi,
one of the changes in version 1.3 is the switch from BSD license to LGPL
and GPL , and being the developer able to chose one or another. May I ask
why this decision was taken? As I understand correctly, with this change,
we no longer can static link the binaries of our applications and embed in
our products unless we buy a license. Have the prices been already set for
it?

Nikolai
