feat: change license from MIT to MIT + Apache 2.0

Open vmx opened this issue 5 years ago • 15 comments

In order to unify the licenses across several multiformats repositories I propose changing the license to an MIT + Apache 2.0 dual license.

In order to make this change, it needs to be approved by all contributors.

If you agree with such a license change, please respond to this PR with:

I license past and future contributions under the dual MIT/Apache-2.0 license, allowing licensees to choose either at their option.

Still not sure what the point is, other than license supremacy and exterminating the lesser licensing options.
