Chie is currently licensed under the GPLv3, it will be relicensed to the MIT license on March 20th, 2028 (5 years after the first commit). I take this approach to discourage closed-source software from taking advantage of my work before it gets enough impacts.

Due to the future relicense, contributors will be asked to sign an agreement.
