Licensing #7
Comments
I second this request; for this kind of library it makes it unusable in a real world app. Please consider switching to MIT or BSD license? |
I would agree with this, I would consider switching. |
Sorry for the late response. Github never sends notifications when someone posts an issue and I've been busy since February with other stuff. To be honest, I really don't read all the licenses to compare them. The intent of the library is for free use. I wouldn't mind getting some attribution for it though. But generally, I'm looking for the most flexible license available to allow developers to incorporate it into their app with no worries about copyright infringement. I'll take a look at the LGPL license and see if that fits. But give me a few weeks because I need to complete what I am currently working on. |
At the end of
README.md
I see that your software is licensed under GPL3 (I get that both the library and the demo app share the same license).Though this is entirely up to you (and I myself sometimes use GPL3 in my code when I see fit), for a library this somewhat impairs its usability. There are varying opinions about whether linking to a GPL3 library "infects" the whole application (requiring all of its code to be licensed under GPL3).
If you find it useful, please consider licensing your code (or at least the library) under LGPL.
This is not an issue per se, as nothing is broken. This is more a way to contact the author.
