Of course it's your call and (from my perspective) either license is
fine.  The GPL ensures that end users can get the application source
code, putting Ada code into the hands of more people and maybe getting
some of them improving it.  The LGPL on the other hand possibly yields
improved revenue opportunities to the app writer, so in theory a few
more apps might get written.

I don't think there's a clear-cut answer to which of these is better for
the Ada community.  There are costs and benefits either way.
