Wes, what license to use is obviously a charged issue! There is no
reason not to use LGPL, if its what you want. Its your code, why should
you develop code for free to be used by for-profit companies?
But... I suggest that if you change the license to something BSDish, you
use exactly the same license as lua 5.0, which is usually called the
"MIT" license, see
http://www.lua.org/license.html#5
It makes it easier for people to decide if they can use your library,
since if they are using lua, they must be able to accept lua's license.
Cheers,
Sam
