Dear contributors (i.e. @Moredread, @killercup, @tilpner and @llogiq),

Would you agree to re-license your contributions to Carboxyl under the Mozilla Public License Version 2.0?

To provide some context just in case, anyone of you has not read this: I started a conversation about creating a reactive ecosystem based on Carboxyl. During that discussion it turned out that a lot of people consider LGPL problematic to use for Rust code, as it limits usage in proprietary software too much. I have been convinced that my original intention to make proprietary users contribute bug fixes & improvements back upstream is better implemented using MPL 2.0.

Of course, in order to change that, we need to have a consensus among contributors to change the license. Please state your opinion on that, and if you are fine with it, explicitly say: I hereby consent to make my contributions to Carboxyl available under the Mozilla Public License Version 2.0

Uhh, that's a one-line #![feature(...)] change, but sure. Good choice!

@tilpner I know… but it does legally make you a contributor, I think.

I think that's everyone?

milibopp commented 8 years ago

Yeah, if anyone feels inclined to make a PR, go ahead. I'll do it someday. Been busy lately…
