Hi Erik,

first, thanks for your work. I would like to include your library in my Home Assistant Gentoo overlay, https://github.com/onkelbeh/HomeAssistantRepository/, because it is used by an integration.

But, you have not published a license, not here, and not on pypi, so I am asking for clarification. According to Gentoo's license guidelines, it is not allowed to redistribute a package without a license (https://devmanual.gentoo.org/general-concepts/licenses/index.html).

Today, I added it with an "all-rights-reserved" tag, this forbids redistribution and usage of gentoo's mirror system.

At the bottom of my README.md you can find some (outdated) license stats, perhaps this helps your decision. Thanks a lot in advance.

\B.
