Linden Lab needs more rights than the LGPL can give them. Namely, to relicense 
your code under a different license. That's why they can not just take what you 
have, but they need you to submit the code to them under the agreement that 
you transfer the rights to them.

To sign over your rights on the code they need to have a legal person on the 
other side. You.
