Hello, In the CMakelist.txt or README files I see Mutationpp is "GNU Lesser General Public License" license, but in the folder I see also a COPYING file for a "GNU General Public License"? why do you have the COPYING file reffering to the GPL if the code is LGPL ? Can you clarify the license type of Mutationpp please? Thanks a lot!

Hi @Bratac7, the combination of the COPYING and COPYING.LESSER are required for the LGPL since the COPYING.LESSER is just an addendum to the COPYING document. Mutation++ is LGPL v3. Thanks for the question.
