I try to follow those rules as much as possible.
The license I would like to use is GMGPL, which is a GPL plus GNAT
exception.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNAT_Modified_General_Public_License)
It's quite equivalent to LGPL, but takes into account instantiation of
generic units.
At this time I don't use any generic unit and I could use LGPL. But I've
imagined some possible usage of generics.

I can send code as an attachment or wait to have my site.
