Hi,

I'm interested in using rfc3987 purely as a library but have restrictions on the licenses I may use under some situations -- are you willing to permit such use under a license other than GPLv3? For example, would you permit such use under LGPLv3 within the confines of another project that is also LGPLed? Thanks.

Sorry, while not entirely closed to economic incentives to switch to LGPL, I have a preference for GPL. If it is that important and you have resources for your project, please let me know by email.

By the way, as you are not the first to ask: someone make a package named rfc3986. Maybe that suits your needs.

Most people can't use this package due to the license.

This can be used instead in most cases (MIT license): https://pypi.org/project/rfc3986-validator/
