I'm a little confused by what license this is actually released under. Your LICENSE file has the following:

QAMQP is Copyright (C) 2014-2015 Matt Broadstone

You may use, distribute and copy QJsonRpc under the terms of GNU Library General Public License version 2, which is displayed below.

Should that QJsonRpc say QAMQP, or is there a QJsonRpc component that we could use if we wanted to that's GPL'ed? Also, your source files have:

[...] you can redistribute it and/or

  • modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public
  • License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either
  • version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.

So it's a bit unclear as to what license applies here.

Thanks!

@kdawg14 aha! oops, yeah sorry this is a failed case of copy pasta indeed. When setting up the "bones" of the project during refactoring I copied a lot of files over from another project I wrote: qjsonrpc. I'll sort that out immediately, but the project is indeed licensed under LGPLv2
