React-native-track-player: Change license

Created on 5 Dec 2017 · 9Comments · Source: react-native-kit/react-native-track-player

I was about to use this library for our Radio Garden app, but I see now it is using a GNU license. Is there any chance you would consider changing to a license such as MIT which does not force open sourcing of apps that use your library?

I was thinking about that the other day, and I definitely don't want to limit this project to OSS use only.

@dcvz What do you think about changing the license? Apache 2.0 is definitely another viable option.

Apache 2.0 is fine for me @Guichaguri and I think would be a good solution.

@puckey @anderslemke @moduval @olivierlesnicki I need the consent from all the contributors:
Do you allow your contributions to this project to be relicensed under Apache 2.0?

Guichaguri on 6 Dec 2017

@Guichaguri No problem with me for Apache 2.0

Since it's hard to get the approval from all the contributors, we don't need 100% to relicense a OSS project.
We already have permission to relicese 99.9% of the code, so we can legally relicense it :)

Better late than never.
@Guichaguri I give my consent too.
