Hi. I searched with Google about this topic, but couldn't find anything that made me sure enough. So I'm asking here now. I have an LGPL Java library (jgrapht) that uses some classes from another library (touchgraph). jgrapht is LGPL-2.1+. touchgraph uses a modified form of the Apache 1.1 license: --- CUT HERE --- /* * TouchGraph LLC.
