Re-license to Apache 2.0 #4

Following the trend of other microg projects, and given that this project can be used as a library replacement for the proprietary Google Maps in applications, would it be possible to re-license this project as Apache 2.0? This would make inclusion in applications easier license-wise as it could be included in non-GPL'd projects.

From the wording in the license of the previous version of this project, it appeared that this project was only GPL licensed because osmdroid was LGPL licensed at the time. This is no longer the case as osmdroid is now also Apache 2.0 licensed, so the base license of this project could be safely changed (if there is no other GPL'd code).
