Commons clause license blocks mark from reaching more users #295

Firstly, thank you for creating and maintaining Mark! It's awesome. I package Mark for openSUSE distros – https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:eroca:go/mark.

Because of the "commons clause condition" added on top of Apache license, I am unable to submit Mark to the official openSUSE repositories, from where it could be installed by simply running zypper install mark.

The reason is SPDX rejecting to add the license: https://github.com/spdx/license-list-XML/issues/902

Maybe consider using an SPDX license for future releases? The benefit would be a potential increase in users, popularity, contributions?

In #487 we replaced CC with Apache 2.0
