Then I'll proudly add a huge banner on the project page saying "adopted by
Google". That's really the last thing I worry about. Unfortunately, a much
more realistic scenario is that the library will not be adopted by anyone
serious.

Or that I've missed something here, and potential target customers will feel
comfortable (as opposed to be able to legally)  to use the software without
the unGPL license. That why I'm asking for your advice.
