Here I disagree, LGPLv3 licensed code can be used as if it was licensed under
the GPLv3, so no compatibility issues as far as I know, and if external
contributions are made to this code, relicensing from GPLv3 to LGPLv3 will be
annoying (ie need to contribute everyone to get their agreement). So I don't
really see a compelling reason to do the relicensing.
