GPL3? #2

Closed drmikecrowe closed 9 years ago

drmikecrowe commented 9 years ago

By making the license of this GPL3, are you forcing all plugins derived from this as GPL3 as well?

omarabid commented 9 years ago

Yes. Is that a problem for you?

drmikecrowe commented 9 years ago

I think so. Isn't GPL3 more restrictive than the GPL2 that Wordpress uses?

Ideally, if this is really a tool for developers, I expected the license to be a stub that would be left to the developer's choice.

Wasn't really aware of that! Changed the License to GPL 2.
