Do I have your permission?

Yes

Yes, sure. LGPL was fine. R.I.P:) Apache is much better.
I want to thank Haivision for this movement.

After further reflection I believe the MPL-2.0 is a more appropriate license for this project. The MPL-2.0 is more permissive than the current LGPL-2.1 while affording the contributors/authors more protection than the APL. The MPL-2.0 would ensure that the SRT source code files, modified or not, must be made available upon distribution of a larger work -- something the APL lacks.

I'm going to close this issue and open a new issue.
