Changing license
Initially I decided lockchain should be an MIT licensed piece of software to allow a wide range of people and projects to use it. Thinking about it now, I feel that there are enough proprietary solutions for secret storage in the world. Whether that be pure password managers or enterprise-focused distributed secret stores. I don't know what lockchain will be one day or even what it is today, but I do know that I don't want it to become the backend to a proprietary piece of software. Therefore I have decided to relicense it under the GNU General Public License 3.0 or later.
