i just read up on the differences between GPL, LGPL, MIT and BSD licenses. http://producingoss.com/en/license-choosing.html

i'm curious (not critical) about the choice of license for OSRM, specifically the choice of LGPL over MIT?

it's relevant to us because we want to make it easy for everyone to build on what we're going, but GPL doesn't allow commercial use. if i understand the differnces correctl, LGPL does allow commercial use, but the license is more complex than MIT.
