We chose to use MIT license for our package.

By using this license, we allow people to use and contribute to this package as they wish. And we free ourselves from any warranty or liabilities related to this package. (Other detailed terms could be found in the license file.) We choose to use this license because we are developing this package for non-commercial purposes, and we would love to encourage developing software collaboratively among the community. Besides, MIT license is a widely-used standardized license. So it's very likely that people are already familiar with it so that they don't need too much time to go through it to decide on acceptance.
