#126 enabled the use of Unidecode as alternative to to text-unidecode. However it would be nice if there was an alternative to avoid installing GPL dependencies.

As a first step it would be great if one could call slugify with allow_unicode=True that works without any of the GPL dependencies installed.

There are no GPL dependencies. Unidecode author: "using the API creates no dependencies". We've included two ways of installing it. Whichever way we choose to go first, some people object. Hence no more license-related changes.
