License mismatch #17

Closed kmuehlbauer closed 4 years ago

kmuehlbauer commented 4 years ago

LICENSE.txt in source folder claims to be BSD-3-clause.
License header in setup.py is MIT

As LICENSE.txt is not distributed with PyPI, people who install from there might assume this package is MIT, whereas people who are installing from GITHUB might assume this is BSD-3-Clause.

Now, what license should be used when redistributing this package?

jleinonen commented 4 years ago

I'm looking into this now. Not sure what the issue is, the license text is exactly the same in LICENSE and in setup.py: the MIT license. Where do you see the BSD license?

kmuehlbauer commented 4 years ago

@jleinonen I've no idea what made me issue this. There is no BSD license here. Good to know, that it's MIT license, and, sorry for the noise.
