because GPL, the original license used for python-crack, forbids the
use of it as part of a bigger proprietary software.
i'd like to switch to MIT/X Consortium License.
i know that LGPL would solve the problem as well, but python-crack
is a little piece of software and anybody can write it in less than
an our. so i have nothing to gain to impose any rule more than those
found in the MIT license.
thanks
