Change License to something more permissive #36

GPL is too restrictive and will not work for most users. MIT, AGPL, or Apache License would be much cooler.

Hi @amalic, sorry for replying so late.

Gdal3.js compiles with Geos and Spatialite. Both libraries are licensed with LGPL. Since I don't understand much about licensing and don't want to violate any licenses, I licensed it under the GPL.

What do you think about LGPL?

Hi!

LGPL sounds just great!

bugra9 commented 1 year ago

@ilyaly, I changed the license from GPL to LGPL with the new version.

@bugra9 , thank you very much, that should really extend the audience of this beatiful library!

amalic commented 1 year ago

LGPL.is perfect! Thank you.
