What do you think?<br>

Fully agreed. It's on my list!<br>

is somebody actually doing sth. here?
I think it might be easier to just open an issue / PR where committers
need to agree on the license change.
We need someone to take care of this so we can settle this issue, IMO.
Cheers, Marc

<pre wrap="">Hi Julien,
thanks for providing this text block. Sounds good to me. The license change from
BSD to GPL has been made here [1]. The term "Commercial License" seems to be
correct as you can see here [2]. Maybe we include the link to Sencha's legal
page ([2]) as well to be clear.
So, for me the procedure of sending an email to the dev-list sounds to be a
reasonable next step.
Cheers,
Chris

I think the first step will be anounce our intention on the dev list and
get a written (by email) acceptance from all committers. Tentative email:

Hello,
The GeoExt PSC has been actively discussing with Sencha about the ExtJS
licensing change that prevented us to use GeoExt with a commercial ExtJS
license. The change made in version X forced us to switch from a BSD
licence to GPL preventing GeoExt to be used with a Commercial ExtJS.
After several months we are really pleased to announced an agreement
from Sencha to Dual-Licence GeoExt 3. Users of GeoExt 3 will be able to
get it under GPLv3 or, if they own an ExtJS commercial licence, use it
under a BSD licence.
To be able to proceed with this licence change we require a written
agreement from every code contributors:
- marcjansen
- KaiVolland
- bentrm
- weskamm
- chrismayer
- bartvde
- jgrocha
- patryksosinski
- dnlkoch
Best regards,
The GeoExt PSC team

I did not find the right term for "ExtJS commercial licence". I'm sure
it has a name, but could not find it.
Please let me know what you think, feel free to correct and send it if
you agree.

<pre wrap="">I like the idea of adding a LICENCE-FAQ.md. I think I would also provide
2 download links:
- GeoExt FOSS version: click here

<pre wrap="">I think that for any license change we do need a confirmation of all
actual contributor since they technically "own" the code.
