License Considerations #3

Open phlogistonjohn opened 6 years ago

Speaking with some of the GD2 devs I was pointed at this repo for python api support for the new GD2 HTTP apis.

Comparing what we have here vs. Heketi's python api, one of the first things that jumped out at me was the choice of GPL for this project. I'd like to suggest dual/multi- licensing the code here like in Heketi. Heketi uses LGPL (v3) and Apache (v2.0).

Doing this would allow a users of this api binding much more flexibility with regard to what licenses they can use and hopefully increase the use of this library versus them making their own homegrown versions.

+1 for a dual licensing scheme.

Ack. Dual licensing makes sense.
