Hi @tinxx
I would prefer it to go to MIT, but I would need buy off from the contributors.
If you can take the time to get everyone on board, I am happy to change.
from bme280.
I'm all for it, sure; feel free to license my one-word contribution under any license you wish, now and in the future. ;)

How would you feel about a license change?
from bme280.
@finitespace you have my permission to do anything you want with my insignificant contribution.
from bme280.
@finitespace You have my permission to change the license as you see fit.
from bme280.
I support the change to a less restrictive license (LGPL or other).
While GPL is in general a good thing, delivering a library under GPL is quite restrictive as it is not compatible with most of the other open source licenses libraries you might want/need to include in your project.
(In fact I am not using this library for some of my projects just because of a license conflict with other libs...)
from bme280.
@finitespace I do not have any objection to changing the licence to any other type.
from bme280.
I'm OK! LGPL might be more suitable for a lib in some cases, so be it :)
from bme280.
This is OK for me too.
from bme280.
I think the LGPL would be preferable to the GPL, but I think MIT or similar would be even better for a library.
But regardless, I consent to this change.
from bme280.
@finitespace, I don't have a problem with that.

Fine with me.

Either LGPL or MIT are good with me.

Hey folks,
Let me summarize the current state of the license change proposal:
I initially proposed LGPL as the new license because the original license was GPL.
@finitespace, however, is the main author and proposed MIT as the new license.
MIT would be even more permissive and would enable the library to be used more easily and extensively.
Now there are some unclear and missing statements from contributors that I would like to get cleared up.
Unclear Contributors
I would like to ask the following contributors to clarify their decisions:
chacalcoelnerjirkaptr- @maru-sama
osos
Do you support either MIT, LGPL, both or basically any license?
vortigont, you signalled you are OK with LGPL. Are you OK with MIT license, too?
OK Contributors (LGPL + MIT)
The following contributors gave their OK for both LGPL and MIT licenses (or any license):
- alexshavlovsky
- AmedeeBulle
- Amunak
- chacal
- coelner
- eykamp
- guruathwal
- HappyWheels
- jirkaptr
- osos
- per1234
- rpaskowitz
- vortigont
Other Contributors
- @johanso-au has so far not been heard from.
- @yanbec has not been mentioned here so far. However I found his name on:
BME280.h
(165-168, 253-255, 315);BME280.cpp
(154-161)
@johanso-au, @yanbec, please tell us if you are OK with a license change to MIT and/or LGPL license?
Sorry for the inconvenience!

All licenses are fine for me!

I'm also OK with any license.
Cheers!

LGPL or MIT are fine.

All licenses are fine for me.

Alright, it looks like we have a quorum! I am going to assume anyone who has not already spoke up has abandoned their account - so speak up now or forever hold your silence.
For the remaining unspoken - I will take your silence as consent
Would someone volunteer to create a new merge request @coelner @tinxx? I would personally like to change it to MIT.
from bme280.
Hi @finitespace,
I have created a PR changing all license annotations to Copyright (c) 2015-2021 Tyler Glenn, et al.
.
Where there were explicit mentions of other contributors (Forked by Alex Shavlovsky
), I have also added the person to the Copyright notice.
Cheers!
