Code under another license?

[pib]

The code in this repo, especially the part that integrates marshmallow-jsonapi and marshmallow-sqlalchmey would be very handy to be able to use, but since this repo has a GPL-3 license, it can't be used in anything but GPL-3 compatible projects.

Any chance you'd be willing to release that portion of the code under a more permissive license?

@pib So long as you don't plan to distribute this code publicly I think you should be fine with the GPL license: Does the GPL require that source code of modified versions be posted to the public? . As this is server side code I don't think it is publicly distributed just by running it on your server unless you are selling API stacks to the public. (In which case contact me for a licensing agreement.)

That said, if my technique of combining marshmallow-jsonapi and marshmallow-sqlalchemy is useful to people I have offered to document that in the marshmallow-jsonapi repo. However I am concerned that I have made very opinionated decisions (my favorite python feature) with my integration which might not be agreeable to everyone. Perhaps I'll go ahead and make a pull request there to see how people feel about my setup. That would be easier to do well if there was activity on that ticket so I can make sure that what I've done is reviewed by other developers to ensure quality.
