I don't see any commitment to a license. I recommend BSD or MIT (or something more liberal yet ...), if that's permissible.

I can't make use of this immediately in my research, but I think I'll likely find this project useful in the future. I suspect many others will, too, and I think getting permission for up-front commitment to a liberal license will help such a community greatly.

Sure, I'm happy to put an MIT license on this thing. Heck, I'm just glad someone thinks it'll be useful :)

Thanks much for the quick responses. I'm just mostly convinced (1) that probabilistic inference over Turing-complete representations is important and (2) that JS is one of the most important execution environments in the world today. To me, that makes probabilistic JS, and therefore your project, important.
