Relicenses this project from MIT to the GNU General Public License v3.0 (SPDX GPL-3.0-only), as part of an org-wide relicensing of every MostroP2P repository.

Changes

  • Cargo.toml

  • LICENSE

  • README.md

  • LICENSE now holds the verbatim GPLv3 text from https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.txt (674 lines).

  • The README license section (and badge, where present) points at GPLv3. Where the README had no license section, one was added.

  • Package metadata (Cargo.toml / package.json) declares GPL-3.0-only so the license is machine-readable; the field was added where it was previously absent.

Notes for reviewers

  • Vendored third-party files keep their own licenses and were deliberately left untouched.
  • MIT is GPLv3-compatible, so the previously MIT-licensed history can be redistributed under GPLv3. Merging this is a maintainer/copyright-holder decision, not a mechanical one — please confirm before merge.

Walkthrough

The project now declares the GPL-3.0-only license in Cargo.toml, adds the complete GPLv3 text, and documents the license in README.md.

Changes

Project licensing

Layer / File(s) Summary
License declaration and documentation
Cargo.toml, LICENSE, README.md
Package metadata declares GPL-3.0-only. The repository includes the complete GPLv3 text. The README links to the license.
Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) ~2 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to a4219

The project will be distributed as GPLv3-only, but authorization from maintainers or copyright holders for the relicensing remains unconfirmed. This should be resolved before merge.

Poem

A rabbit checks the license line
GPLv3 marks the project fine
The full text rests in place
The README shows its trace
One clear notice, neatly signed
