No strong opinion either way from my side.

It looks like pytricia does indeed offer a very similar interface, and
being able to stop maintaining a custom dependency would certainly be
a plus. On the other hand, this might be a case of "if it's not
broken, don't fix it". pysubnettree hasn't required a lot of work
recently, and users would need to install a new dependency if we
switched.

I don't know what constraints LGPL imposes when applied to Python
modules.
