Hi,

Would it be possible to relicense this project as Apache 2.0/MIT? Being Apache only makes it incompatible with a number of common licenses including some of the following

GNU GPL
GNU LGPL
Creative Commons Non-Comercial

A list of commonly use but incompatible licenses can be found here.

This would also facilitate with integrating in the rest of the rust ecosystem. If you completley disagree with this, please close this issue.

Thank you

That's by design.
