[dev] [license] gpl issues

2023-05-04 Thread Ray Garner
Hi I've been using suckless tools such as dwm and st for a while now and think theyre great, my question is to do with software licenses. I'm curious about licensing and was wondering why suckless tools are released under MIT rather than an alternative like GPL. Is it just to make it compatible
