LY to Join *A

Already have a codeshare with SR, now owned by LH. Could it be possible to have LY join *A? I know they have codeshares w/ AA and DL as well. I would like to see LY join it.

Codeshare is a very common in today's airline business. It doesn't mean one airlines may join an alliance because of it.
