Hi, I just noticed that you changed the license from BSD-3/MIT to GPL some time back. I bundled/vendored an earlier version of this code here in a project for easier distribution (while it was still under BSD-license).

Hi, @VolkerH, Thanks for your question. In my understanding, there should be no problem with the new GPL license as long as you keep the source code open. The GPL mainly restricts closing the source when you distribute the code/product. We can discuss it in detail, please DM me. Thanks!

Ok, as long as you don't see a problem with my use in here. I originally included your code for ease of building, but I saw yesterday that one can meanwhile just install npy2bdv from pypi so I now changed my code so that npy2bdv is a dependency rather than including a copy in my repo. Thanks again for this project. Will close this issue.

No problem at all, I am glad you use it and keep the source open. The pip version has many new convenience features and bug fixes, I recommend it over the old code.
