Why did Ambulant switch from GPL to LGPL licensing?

0

This was done at the request of various Ambulant users. The feeling was that LGPL licensing could make it easier for third parties to integrate Ambulant in their environments. The Ambulant legal team felt that there was sufficient room in the exclusions that accompanied our GPL license to allow this, but third party legal experts felt that a switch to LGPL would make this flexibility more apparant to more people. Note that no user action is required with regard to this change.
