Changing the License to MIT · Issue #397 · Arduino-IRremote/Arduino-IRremote · GitHub

Is anyone opposed to switching the license for all new versions of the library from LGPL to MIT? Just to be clear, all previous versions will remain LGPL.

Update

I thought it might be wise to just mention briefly why I would like to change the Licensing. Without getting into a holy war, I personally prefer permissive licenses and not restrictive ones. I respect that GPL advocates for software "freedom" but unfortunately that means different things to different people. To me GPL simply means a new set of restrictions whereas MIT allows you to practically do anything.
