What license is Plummer distributed under? #1

Since you removed the CDDL+GPLv2 headers (and the commit message said they're no longer applicable), what license is Plummer distributed under? As it stands, I'll have to assume it's copyrighted ("all rights reserved") and I'm not allowed to use it somewhere productive in any form. The article you link to in the README file states to "feel free to play with the code", but that's not exactly a license (at least I figure I would have a hard time construing that statement as a release under WTFPL).

I'd be very grateful if you could clarify the licensing terms.

Sorry about that. I hadn't actually given that the thought that I should. I'll probably put BSD or MIT on that. I'll try to get those changes made and committed as soon as I can, but you're certainly feel free to use it. I'll get that officially clarified as quickly as I can. :)
