License change

[sneumann]

Hi,
GPL-3 is not a permissive license.
Relicense to something like Apache, BSD or MIT ? I wouldn't know which one of them.
Yours,

We use Artistic 2.0 for RMassBank ... if you want to keep it consistent "in the family".

Hi,
good question. Is there no general guidance in NFDI?

Wikipedia says the most permissive one is Python Foundation Software License.

IMHO most used alternatives to GLP are MIT or (free)BSD.

Artistic 2.0 is much less permissive than GPL-3, with many restrictions. I would rather think about to relicense RMassBank to a more permissive one.

Another comparison is here.

Cheers,
Tobi
