BSD or GPL? #12

Description

@dave-shawley

The packaging metadata says BSD

setup(
    name='consistent_hash',
    version='0.3',
    author="Yummy Bian",
    author_email="yummy.bian@gmail.com",
    url="https://github.com/yummybian",
    packages=['consistent_hash'],
    platforms=["Any"],
    license="BSD",
    keywords='consistent hash hashing',
    description="Implements consistent hashing with Python.",
)

Yet the implementation file is tagged as GPLv3

IANAL, but I believe that this needs to be interpreted as GPLv3.
