I was going through the licence file included in the gtk 1.0.6 distribution, and discovered that gtk is distributed under the lgpl. >From my limited understanding, with the gpl, you MUST release derivative works with source, though the lgpl has been modified to allow you to release binary only derivative works. Is this the case? Could someone more familiar with the lgpl please clarify it for me.
