Hm, that's a tough problem. It's the questions how much our LGPL policy is
worth. Who would use a LGPL library, but wouldn't use a GPL one? Would these
people buy a commercial license of kdgantt? Does this kind of developer even
exist?
In order to have a clean non-GPL lib module we probably have to leave out
kdgantt for now.
