License change #17

Hi,

I was looking into packaging xnat4tests for Fedora since xnatpy requires it for running tests. However, the current license provided in the LICENSE file (CC0-1.0) is not allowed in Fedora.

The metadata in setup.py states "License :: OSI Approved :: Apache Software License", which contradicts with the license shipped in LICENSE. Moreover, according to the SPDX listing, CC0-1.0 is not OSI approved.

Would it be possible to re-license the software under one of the allowed licenses? One of the Apache flavors comes to mind, given that it is mentioned on PyPI already. But any of the allowed licenses will be fine.

This is the companion request to issue #6 of medimages4tests.

Hi @penguinpee , sorry I had my GH notifications going to the wrong place there for a while and so missed this. Yes, that should be fine. I will have a look at the allowed licenses and probably go with an Apache one

Thank you. I'll be monitoring for new releases. We currently exclude the tests in xnatpy requiring xnat4tests. So, no hurry.
