GPL is too restrictive and will not work for most users. MIT, AGPL, or Apache License would be much cooler.

Hi @amalic, sorry for replying so late.

Gdal3.js compiles with Geos and Spatialite. Both libraries are licensed with LGPL. Since I don't understand much about licensing and don't want to violate any licenses, I licensed it under the GPL.

What do you think about LGPL?

LGPL sounds just great!

@ilyaly, I changed the license from GPL to LGPL with the new version.
