Restore MIT license? #4

Closed marcello3d closed 7 years ago

marcello3d commented 7 years ago

Hey there, I'd love to use this fork, but it looks like you changed the project from MIT to GPL when you forked it. Any particular reason you decided to do that? Any chance you could re-release it as MIT again?

Thanks!

jlcvp commented 7 years ago

This was my manager's call. I'll check that possibility.

jlcvp commented 7 years ago

@marcello3d just a clarification, it's LGPL. It means that If your work just "uses" this library you don't have to disclose your source code. But if you plan to extend this library you should make the source for the modified version of this library available under the same license.

Anyway, I'll check the reason why the company chose LGPL over MIT and give you a feedback here.

Thanks for the quick reply! I've had issues even with LGPL in the past so tend to steer clear. :-)

Not the end of the world, I'll check out the other forks in the meantime.

Thank you!

@marcello3d make sure you're using 1.0.15+ as it's the first version which the proper license file and package.json is present via npm
