@graingert Correct. I dug through the source code of RapidFuzz. It forked from fuzzywuzzy at a time when it was still under the MIT license, and confirmed there was no GPL code in that version of fuzzywuzzy.

So at least from a forking/licensing perspective, it's a viable alternative to pylev. Given that it's a low(er)-traffic fork, I opted to leave it off in favor of a couple more if the libraries that motivated the creation of pylev.

Last, sorry for the rewording. I had a laugh at the original commit, because that's how I felt before making pylev. But I don't want to risk people misreading & believing I'm insulting other people's work or choice of license, which was never the intent.

Thanks for the help!
