Changing to GPLv3

[octylFractal]

Hi everyone, as part of inclusion in EngineHub we'd like to re-license the project to GPL so that we can potentially link it with WorldEdit or a common library if needed. Unfortunately, that means that we need permission from all copyright holders to change the license to GPLv3, as EPLv1 is not compatible with the GPL.

So, if you're mentioned below, please comment stating your approval or disapproval for us to change to GPLv3.

All other contributors I didn't include, as it appears their changes have been erased by the sands of time, or weren't significant (<100 lines), or weren't code changes. Notably, lahwran's code no longer appears to be part of the current HEAD repository, so I don't think we need their permission to switch the license.

If we don't get all responses by 2023, or we get a negative reply, I'll likely abandon the idea of moving this to GPL, but that might mean that I work on https://github.com/EngineHub/WorldEditVisualizer instead, since that is GPL-able.

I (zml2008) will gladly release all contributions I have made to WorldEditCUI under the terms of the GPL v3 or later.

I've contacted them on Reddit as they're active as of yesterday there.

While I generally personally prefer to use other non-GPL licenses for my open source work, I approve re-licensing my past contributions to this project, as I do not feel it is appropriate for me to block future improvements to a project that I have not been active on in many years.
