Permissive Relicensing #44

Open JeremyRubin opened 6 years ago

JeremyRubin commented 6 years ago

Suggesting that you might relicense this project under MIT or BSD or Public Domain.

Many cryptographic libraries are licensed as such (e.g., secp256k1, libsnark, nacl, etc).

This makes it easier to include them in a diverse set of projects, and is more likely to get attention from outside contributors.

GPL is a fine license and has many benefits, so I understand the desire to use it, but for crypto libraries something more permissive is probably appropriate.

Any update/comment on this? I am working on a project where this might become very relevant. Thanks!
