Why can't you agree to not distribute the libraries before the end of the first round? > And soultion for that is temporary > non-free programs :(((, but they could'n not use the library to create > comercial programs :))) That is not true. Note that commercial does not mean proprietary. Free Software means that users have certain freedoms; it does not mean zero price. "Commercial" means "associated with business"; a commercial program may be free or non-free, depending on its license. So it is a mistake to treat "free" and "commercial" as contraries. When a business develops free software, that is free commercial software. > since the library is dump and it is tight bounded to > the simulator :))) ( simulator do everithing). > I will try to encourage players to release their programs as free softvare.

You just don't have to force your players to distribute their code. I'm sorry, but I can't agree with you :) Anyway, if you still think that using the LGPL is better, you are free to do so. I suggest you submit the library as a different project. I'll approve it asap.
