Looking at the source files' headers, it is apparent that your software is licensed under the GPLv3.

However there are contradicting statements in your setup.py and LICENSE files. In summary there are the following inconsistent statements:

  • src/bioservices/*.py: # Distributed under the GPLv3 License.
  • setup.py: 'license' : 'GPL' (no version specified!)
  • setup.py: 'License :: OSI Approved :: GNU Library or Lesser General Public License (LGPL)',
  • LICENSE: Bioservices is distributed under a 3-clause ("Simplified" or "New") BSD license.

Thanks for spotting the discrepancies. The original license was GPLv3 so I have set GPLv3 in the different places you have mentioned. thanks again.
