Why GPL?

Open rikardn opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

Why is the license for the R bindings of symengine GPL? Ideally it should be under the same license as symengine itself

I was following the license of R itself (which is GPL-2 | GPL-3). If there is concern on that, I am happy to switch it to MIT license (suppose everyone agree).

I think we should change, but there might be more authors that need to agree. Any comments on this @isuruf or @certik?

I'm fine with that. We'll have to get approval from the other contributors.

@irexyc Please see the issue above. I wonder do you agree with changing the package license to MIT? Thanks.
