Hello,

Previously, I mentioned implementing an LP library for Boost. However, there didn't seem to be a consensus on how I should go about it. If we can't agree on a method of attack, then there is no hope for me to get a proposal through the selection committee. So now, I solicit the communities advice on writing a wrapper for lp_solve, an LGPL library that purported to be one of the most stable free LP solvers. Do we care that a dependency is LGPL? I've done my due diligence and there doesn't seem to be a comparable MIT/Boost licensed library.

Thanks for your consideration, Chad

Didn't you mention OpenOpt, which is BSD-licensed?
