Change the license to GPL3 about open-cobol-esql HOT 2 CLOSED

The change of license to GPL was completed.

from open-cobol-esql.

Thank you for the change - just to recheck: did you planned to move everything to GPLv3? Previously only the parser was under GPL, the library was under LGPL, so usable without providing the source code of the own application that links to that.

If used "in-house" or if the COBOL sources are also shipped to the customer this makes no difference; I primarily want to check if this was "by design" or not.
The README file does not match the license header in the files.

If it wasn't and the libraries should still be under (updated) LGPL:

• in any case adjust

  Open-COBOL-ESQL/README

  Lines 37 to 41 in eec3a23

  	Programs in dblib subdirectories are distributed under the GNU
  	Lesser General Public License. See COPYING.LIB for details.

  possibly just changing "COPYING.LIB" to "COPYING.LESSER" (or drop the exception for dblib if all should be GPL'd now)
• put https://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl-3.0.txt as COPYING.LESSER next to the COPYING file
• adjust the license header in the source files below dblib to read
