Due to incompatibility between GPLv3 and Apache 2.0 it is hard to use python-hpilo from, for instance, OpenStack. It would therefore be helpful if the project code could also be released under a more permissive license, like for instance Apache 2.0 (which is how OpenStack is licensed)

I'm fine with this, but this needs approval from the other contributors too. Let's see if summoning them works:

@peterfisher
@lotia
@sspans
@fragfutter
@Eagllus
@ngara
@kevints
@agy

You all have contributed at least one patch. Can you please comment to indicate that you approve of dual-licensing your contribution under the Apache 2.0 license?

Yes, I didn't go through all the code and just assumed you were the only
copyright holder. Let's see what the other guys say.

Thanks Dennis

I'm happy with dual licensing. Let me know if any papers need to be signed and scanned etc.

Not sure if it works by replaying to the mail...

But it's fine by me.

I'm more than happy to dual-license (or even change to Apache 2.0).

Hi Guys,

This is not a quorum yet right? We are still missing 2?

Cheers,

Thanks everyone! I'll close this issue to stop spamming you. All new releases will be dual GPL/Apache.
