License about ironsight HOT 4 CLOSED

I guess it's automatically GPLv3 licensed due to it's use of the Bukkit API, which is licensed under GPLv3 (not LGPL!)

from ironsight.

DISCLAIMER: Obviously I'm not a laywer in any way shape or form.

As discussed on Discord with robotnikthingy and by the LICENSE file that was added, IronSight is now GPLv2.
Please note that Bukkit however is GPLv3, and that these licenses are not actually compatible.
The question for whether this is even valid at all, then depends on the (to my knowledge) unanswered legal question of whether dynamically linking with Java API's in this plugin manner creates a deriviative work.

The Free Software Foundation's position on this is that yes it does, as illustrated by their GPL FAQ

Now I'm really starting to feel like I'm being an annoyance, I dont want to be, but I think this is a crucial thing to get right, especially in a project that aims to be the open source replacement of CrackShot

No worries, Im no expert in licenses so if I did it wrong I would prefer someone pointed it out. I updated it to GPLv3 so it should be good now

Thanks :)
