Hi there!

Not sure if intentional or you just followed what some other developer was doing. In the plugin.json (and maybe other places) you state the license of the project as being GPL-3.0-only.

Is there a specific reason for this? Or would GPL-3.0-or-later be ok with you?

I am hoping to use your code in another opensource project, but this 3.0-only thing is a blocker. There is discussion about this already in https://github.com/zezic/ZZC/issues/86 and https://github.com/MarcBoule/Geodesics/issues/4 if you want more information (it is a little bit of a pain to keep explaining the same thing over and over..)

Let me know if you have any questions about the subject, will answer them to the best of my ability. If you rather stick with GPL-3.0-only that is fine too, it is your project after all. Just giving a nudge of maybe seeing the change to GPL-3.0-or-later, as only you as the author can do that.

Thanks in advance!
