Hi all.

When I started this project, I had very little experience about
licenses. I knew that LGPL were created to enable library projects and
so I decided to use it.

Sorry if I did a mistake about that. :(

Yeah, today I know that! :)

I could ask all developers who contributed to project their permission
to change the code to bsd license, but, in IMHO, I think this wouldn't
be necessary, as LGPL fullfills the requirements of Npgsql licensing.

Please, correct me if I'm wrong. ;) I welcome all and any feedback
possible about that.
