Full dependency list not clear #108

I see io2d is under the Boost License but it will be really helpful to have the full dependency list and their licenses so that users can be sure if it safe to use this library for their applications. Thank you!

This is going to take a bit of time. The licenses of the dependencies on all platforms are all non-GPL to the best of my knowledge. The cairo dependency is intended to use the MPL (Mozilla Public License) 1.1 license option. I believe that all other library licenses are either Boost, MIT, or zlib, but the libraries needed depend on the platform and build configuration so right now I can't say for sure whether or not any of the dependencies pull in a GPL license or a similar copyleft license. I'll try to take a look soon. Bug me by posting a reply if I don't do so within the next month! :)
