Hello all.

I would like to ask question for the license of syslog-ng.

syslog-ng is licensed under the combination of the GPL and LGPL licenses.

The syslog-ng core (src/ subdirectory) is licensed under the
Lesser General Public License as described in the file LGPL.txt

The syslog-ng modules (src/xxxx/ subdirectories) are licensed under the
General Public License as described in the file GPL.txt

Would it be correct to understand as below?
  LGPL = LGPLv2.1
  GPL  = GNU General Public License, version 1

I couldn't find the both text in the tarball so asked this question.

Thanks!
Yu
