Ok,

but the point is, Alexandre thinks that trading code, although giving a 
short time advantage will be disastrous in the long run. IMHO his reasoning 
is correct. Because he wants to make the amount of LGPL - ONLY code as big 
as possible. As a consequence many companies will start using the LGPL 
codebase and improve it. Now if the X11 tree was as big as the LGPL, most 
companies would prefer to work with the X11 tree, got it? Thats why he 
doesn't want the X11 tree to grow too much -> no code trading. Makes sense...
