License disallows usage in Inexor #77

Closed a-teammate closed 7 years ago

Hey there

I'm coming here from ungoogled-chromium issue-tracker:

https://github.com/Eloston/ungoogled-chromium/issues/230

(And they told me they are using the GPL, since you are using the GPL ^^) I'm really not sure in how far we can actually use these patches though, as we are a BSD style project.

So I'm quoting myself here:

why add a license restriction when you're trying to free another software project? I mean you're intention is pretty good and its useful, but a lot of users can't get rid of the chrome stuff because of your license.

Is there any chance you will change the license to be usable in Inexor?

I answered in the issue you came from https://github.com/Eloston/ungoogled-chromium/issues/230. TL;DR: I'm happy to change the license in further releases.
