JsColor has a commercial license, whereas this repo advertises an MIT license.

See original GitHub issue

I recently started using django-colorfield in a commercial application. I assumed that this was OK, given the MIT license advertised here. However, on the official jscolor page they clearly describe their commercial license.

So, without purchasing a commercial license from jscolor is is inappropriate to use django-colorfield in any non-open-source software.

JsColor’s Licence page actually says

If you are creating an open source application under a license compatible with the GNU GPL license v3, feel free to use jscolor under the terms of GNU GPL license v3.

So there doesn’t seem to be a problem here, as long as no one tries to use the jsColor part in a proprietary project.
