Change license?

[Peter9192]

This week we took on phenor as a dependency, and later also probably MODISTools. Both are released under an AGPL license, which is incompatible with our permissive Apache2 license. [Apparently](A “covered work”), the mere act of importing phenor in our code falls under 'linking', which under AGPL falls under the definition of a 'covered work'. Thus, we have a couple of options

• Changing our own license to AGPL
• Remove phenor and find alternatives
• Separate the repo into
  1. a workflow tool written in python (under Apache) and
  2. a phenology workflow tool that uses 1. and phenor (under AGPL)

I think for now the the first option is the best, and we can save option 3 for later.

Fourth option would be to use REUSE

First annotate everything with apache, then manually change files that should be under (A)GPL

find "src" -type f -exec reuse annotate --copyright="Springtime authors" --license="Apache-2.0" {} \;
find "tests" -type f -exec reuse annotate --copyright="Springtime authors" --license="Apache-2.0" {} \;
find "docs" -type f -exec reuse annotate --copyright="Springtime authors" --license="Apache-2.0" {} \;
reuse annotate --copyright="Springtime authors" --license="Apache-2.0" README.md environment.yml mkdocs.yml pyproject.toml
reuse annotate --copyright="Springtime authors" --license="Apache-2.0" .gitignore .github/workflows/lint.yml .readthedocs.yaml
