LGPL or GPL?

[tomhughes]

Although COPYING is the LGPL the header at the top of __init__.py is GPL meaning that the whole project is effectively GPL.

If the intention is to use LGPL then could __init__.py be fixed, otherwise can COPYING be fixed.

Also the FSF address in __init__.py is out of date.

Any thoughts on this? Only it's holding up getting python-mapnik into Fedora which in turn is holding up getting mapnik v3.x in.

@tomhughes - __init__.py fixed, thanks! There are some GPL'ed files in /demo/viewer/* and /demo/python/* but this should be fine as they are client code linking/using core lib?

[tomhughes]

The utils and demo subpackages of mapnik itself already have GPLv2+ in their license tag so that shouldn't be a problem.
