I did think about that, but lost mental track of it; sorry, I should
know better!  Right now, the *released* pygr code is GPL, and anything
that makes use of it must also be released under the GPL if it is
to be released.  You should put a note in the README to that effect
(although since they will need to download pygr anyway, they should
figure it out for themselves).

In the future you (as copyright holder) will be free to relicense the
code as BSD and release it under that license, when/if Chris releases
pygr under the BSD license.

sorry for the confusion,
