Re: Exception to LGPL license for LAME

Hello Anthony,

I'm sorry, but changing the terms of LAME's license would require to have  
everyone involved to agree about.
Considering, that a lot of those people aren't in contact with this  
project anymore, I doubt that is even possible.
Further, you would have to do patent research in those countries, where  
you would want to sell your product.

Ciao Robert
