license question :) #8

Hey,

i am currently designing a little base64 decoding/encoding API and the implementation of the SIMD related code is heavily based on your code in here, but with a nice reusable API around, so that others can use it as a header-only lib in their projects.

Now, I usually set all my projects to Apache License version 2, and I think your code is in BSD license? I am by no means a license expert and most likely will never be. Is it okay to reference to your work to all extend and original license but keep my base64 library as "Apache License version 2"?

Many thanks in advance, Christian Parpart.

Hi Christian!

The Apache License is fine for me too, feel free to use the code. :) I will upgrade the repo later and make the project dual-licensed.

Many thanks! If it is okay, I'd forward you the link to that (hopefully general-purpose lib) when ready. :)
