I received consent by @schlachtberger off list, so we can go ahead with relicensing. |

Similar to PyPSA and PyPSA-EUR we would like to change the license for atlite from the copyleft GNU General Public License Version 3 (GPLv3) to the more liberal MIT License.
This change is suggested because the benefits of a more liberal license seem to outweigh the benefits of a copyleft approach.
For a discussion of the benefits of either license see PyPSA/PyPSA#274 but also please feel free to also discuss below.
This change requires the consent of all people who have substantially contributed code to atlite.
If you consent, please reply with a ✔️ below. If you do not consent, please reply with a ❌ below. Please respond by 11 December 2022.
Thanks for your help and contributions!
Consent Essential (>= 20 lines of code)
Consent Appreciated (< 20 lines of code)
(I'll update the PR if everyone has agreed to the license switch later to include all the necessary changes to files for the license switch to be complete)
