Relicensing Rash #82

Closed willghatch closed 1 year ago

willghatch commented 3 years ago

I've decided I want to relicense Rash to match Racket. When I started Rash I used the same license that Racket then had (GPL-3), but Racket has since relicensed to dual licensing MIT and Apache 2. I think there are some benefits to having libraries share the same license as the host language, so I'm switching.

I'm no legal expert, but I'm going to do what Racket did and ask all contributors to reply giving their permission to relicense their contributions and listing the email addresses they used for Rash.

Something like:

I, William Hatch, give permission to license my contributions to Rash under MIT/Apache 2. I've used the email address william@hatch.uno.

Thanks!
