Many organizations disallow GPL, AGPL, or LGPLv3 in shipping code. Given that Guava is highly successful and licensed under Apache 2, I see no reason for cofja to be LGPLv3

Please consider re-releasing it under a more business-friendly license.

Just adding my 2cents: isn't LGPLv3 incompatible with deploying for Android?

Catching up after a year of absence; cleaning up bug database.

I normally release all my code under a BSD license; in this case, however, this is not my code alone, although most of it is, it was originally derived from a LGPL project, hence the license was kept... I'm not knowledgeable as to what would be required in order to change licenses at this point.

Status: Accepted

In order to change the license you have to contact all the contributors and ask them if they are ok to relicense their code.
