Decide licence #18

Closed fredRos closed 7 years ago

fredRos commented 7 years ago

We have GPL now, perhaps we use MIT or BSD. In any case, we should add the usual licence comments in the header files and python wrappers

mtazzari commented 7 years ago

Yes, we need to add the headers. However: why LGPL is not ok?

It's fine with me. I just thought you have considered using something more liberal. But maybe I'm thinking of somebody else on another project. If you gave it some thought, I"m fine if it's LGPL

Thanks, very nice overview. LGPL seems ideal for us.

I checked again the types of licenses and I confirm LGPL is the best for us. Very nice this license selector: https://ufal.github.io/public-license-selector/
