LGPL solves the problem for the end user who is linking the DLL, but not
the developer community, which is who you are trying to convey your code
to.  The source of your code is copyleft, which infects the minds of anyone
that reads it.  You probably think I am joking or exaggerating, but I am
not.  You should talk to lawyers at any company that sells software.
