Hi, @lenzo-ka! Thanks for your interest and message! So I am willing to consider things, but I would like to know if you have a reference to whatever the potential issue is, or a more concrete example of an issue? I'd want to be a bit more about this, but most things I find are just referring to some hardware-related issues which were changed by GPLv3. Also, Praat's licensing is somewhat confusing, I now found out. The code itself is GPLv2 (or later) indeed (cfr. https://github.com/praat/praat/blob/master/main/GNU_General_Public_License.txt and the headers in the files), but Praat's documentation says it's licensed under GPLv3: https://www.fon.hum.uva.nl/praat/manual/License.html. Apart from all this, I'm happy when people want to use Parselmouth, especially in scientific and other non-commercial contexts, and happy to further discuss if there's anything limiting this. But I would like to understand better why, in which case you want to use it but couldn't, and I am not convinced there's actually much choice I have, given Praat's situation? |

The code is under GPL v3, the bindings under BSD, and Praat is under GPL v2 license. Would you consider changing the license to GPL v2, so that it matches the Praat licensing? I say this because of the murkiness of some of the language in v3 around data in services, which makes people skittish. I'd love to use the code and not write another set of bindings to avoid v3.
