Yeah, I was also going to suggest MIT. I think we are probably also overthinking it a little bit. The spirit of the GPL license as well as that of everyone that contributed to it was one of openness and sharing. It's probably good to try to reach out to as many as possible that contributed about a change of license just for the sake of respecting their efforts and the license, but otherwise, we probably don't need to worry too much. I think it would still be good to get it to a place where there isn't any question about it, though.
