Memory-Safe, Rust-Based and GPL-Free. 😂

Is that good or bad? What license are they using instead?

Edit: looks like they're using MIT, but I can't say I really understand the implications of that change

Basically, Expat-like licenses do not use the copyleft system: When you distribute a project that's copyleft licensed, you must give the exact same rights you were given (including the source code, license terms, etc). To resume this in 1 quote "the rights of one ends where the rights of the other begin"
