Also LGPLv3 would provide more use flexibility than the GPLv3. It would still keep your code open and free, but allow closed source projects to use it. I understand that for some absolutely code freedom is important, but if usage is more important LGPL might be a better fit. Again the code stays open and free and any downstream changes have to be released in that case. Just a thought.
Freedom is important cause it has usage implications. It encourages to make the libre software full featured by itself.
I changed the license to MIT in the last release.

You are trolling me.

why, is it listed differently somewhere?

The default "notice text" is as follows, with my emphasis added:
However, since the library only includes the words "This Library is licensed under a GPLv3 License", it's unclear whether that means GPL3-only (which is the "non-standard" way of licensing GPL3), or if it means this stock GPL3+ text. It's not critical now, since there's no GPL4 yet, but in the interest of cleaning up and including complete license notices, I'd like this point clarified.
