Please clarify the license #22

In the package.json it says "BSD". Could this be clarified to specify which BSD, to make it easier for those doing license checks? Would BSD-3-Clause be too much of an assumption?

I agree, but not only for license checks. Not including a licence file might imply that the project is closed source, and may lead to all sorts of problems.

I don't think we should assume that.

@maxogden Please add a LICENCE file to your repository.

I see that license file with BSD-3-Clause has been added in github, thanks a lot. It would be good to also update the package.json file with the information "license": "BSD-3-Clause", because BSD is not a valid SPDX identifier for npm. Thanks
