[Ctk-developers] Fwd: Contribution to PythonQt

[Dominique Belhachemi]

Hi Jc,

Personally I like projects with only one license and one copyright
holder. It keeps the license maintenance low.

Your commit changes the License to LGPL which is very helpful.
Otherwise upstream would probably not accept your contribution.
But unfortunately it adds the Kitware Copyright and some contact
information to the license header. For my patches I always use
upstream's original header to keep things simple.
Here is an example of the PythonQt header:

Thanks
Dominique
