we're considering to allow applications to query the data in Tracker
using a direct access library at some point in the future, i.e., a
public library that directly reads from the SQLite database instead of
using D-Bus.
To prevent possible licensing issues with that library, we'd like to
relicense the code used in the internal libraries libtracker-common,
libtracker-db, and libtracker-data from `GPLv2 or later' to `LGPLv2 or
later'.
We therefore kindly ask everyone who has contributed code used in any of
the aforementioned libraries to reply with a mail to allow us to go
forward with the relicensing. We'll send individual mails to
contributors that we've determined from the change log.
Hereby my permission to relicense all my contributions in aforementioned
libraries.
