    crypto/secp256k1: unify the package license to 3-Clause BSD (#17225) · afd8b847
    Péter Szilágyi authored
    Our original wrapper code had two parts. One taken from a third
    party repository (who took it from upstream Go) licensed under
    BSD-3. The second written by Jeff, Felix and Gustav, licensed
    under LGPL. This made this package problematic to use from the
    outside.
    
    With the agreement of the original copyright holders, this commit
    changes the license of the LGPL portions of the code to BSD-3:

    I agree changing from LGPL to a BSD style license.

    Hey guys,
    
    My preference would be to relicense to GNUBL, but I'm also OK with BSD.
    
    Cheers,
    Gustav

    Felix Lange (fjl):
    I would approve anything that makes our licensing less complicated
