done

marco-piccolino commented 7 years ago

thank you! Keep in mind that LGPL makes the plugin library unusable in practice for e.g. iOS projects based on Qt's commercial license. If you want to allow such usage I suggest a more liberal license such as MIT or Apache 2.0.

marco-piccolino commented 7 years ago

That said, it also depends on what Google terms and conditions require.

vladest commented 7 years ago

hm. ok, thanks for the input. will change to MIT then

vladest commented 7 years ago

Changed to MIT

marco-piccolino commented 7 years ago

Thanks for looking into it. I do hope that MIT is compatible with Google's licensing terms. I honestly have no idea.

closing then
