Can anyone help clarify what license this is released under? The original was AGPL if the rewrite is permissively licensed that would be pretty cool.

It looks like it's MIT: https://github.com/chrieke/prettymapp/blob/main/setup.py#L15...

It’s MIT but based on an AGPL project? Hmm. Something is fishy.

Probably just an honest mistake. But they should definitely look into fixing that.

The original is AGPL, and the new one is MIT. I wonder if that's even legal?

I'm not sure if this is really a rewrite, or simply an adaptation. I don't think the license could have changed, be advised.

Why would that be "pretty cool"?
