Switch to PEP-639 compliant expression of license metadata - #128
Merged
Conversation
PEP 639, and core metadata version 2.4, introduced new ways of representing a package's license, and deprecated the old License field and license classifiers. The changes I'm making to the setuptools config in this commit cause wheels to be generated with the new format of license metadata.
