Re-licensing cartopy from LGPL to BSD-3 #2134
Description
To enable wider adoption of Cartopy, we are working on re-licensing it to be the more flexible BSD-3 license.
Before we can do this we need all previous contributors to sign the latest SciTools Contributors License Agreement (CLA) as this includes a clause stating that the SciTools libraries can be re-licensed to any other OSI approved license.
If your username appears below, could you please sign the updated CLA (Google Form) which can be found here: https://scitools.org.uk/cla/v4/form
