I mentioned v3 mainly so that my references to section numbers would
be unambiuous.
There isn't currently any specific library I'm interested in, but it's
a real possibility that in the future the situation might come up when
I have to ponder about licenses. I'm especially curious about the case
when the LGPL library has only headers and no compilable source files
(which is often the case with heavily templated C++ libraries).
There are also some LGPL libraries out there which might become handy in
the future (not necessarily on the iPhone, but on other projects), such as
this one: http://tangentsoft.net/mysql++/ (although it specifically contains
the version 2 of the LGPL license text).
Also, having created a relatively popular LGPL library myself, it would
be good to know what I'm actually using.
