Hi, we are exploring CMS options for a project and came across payload as an alternative. We noticed though that payload currently has a dependency on swc-minify-webpack-plugin which is licensed under GPL-3.0 which is a no go for us - is there a plan to remove/replace this dependency anytime soon?

    Thanks for the prompt response Elliot! Really happy to hear this



    Actually just noticed the license on the swc-minify-webpack-plugin repo was updated to Apache 2.0 5 hours ago 😆 so guess a version update is all we might need

    I asked the author about it before ripping it out of our project, I kind of figured the license was unintentional 🙂 Thanks again for bringing this to light.
