License inconsistency #47

Closed lunkwill42 closed 2 years ago

lunkwill42 commented 2 years ago

Description

The contents of LICENSE.txt and setup.py are not in agreement about which license this project is released under.

LICENSE.txt contains the MIT license text, while the Trove classifiers in setup.py (which are used to tag/classify the package on PyPI) claims the license is AGPL 3.0. These licenses are not compatible - it would be prudent to resolve this, as many projects would avoid dependencies that are licensed with AGPL.

MIT License is compatible with AGPL, but not in the other way. As I discovered, there is no copyright or license notice that claims rights on AGPLv3 on drf-rw-serializers, but MIT license contains it's own, so everyone should use it under the terms of MIT license. but about the PyPi classifiers I think it's a mistake, as the license parameter of setup metadata is exactly on MIT (setup.py:52) so I'm going to fix classifier in a PR.

Request for comments, Thanks @lunkwill42.
