Or how about this: Ruby is dual-licensed; it can be used under the Ruby 
license terms, or under the LGPL. Would it be problematic to add the 
BSD license in the mix?

That way, the people who are comfortable  with things the way they are 
won't have to change anything; but those who are nervous can be 
reassured by the BSD part.
