But all content added since then is in a legal grey zone, since we did not add a clear LICENSE at the time.
To clean up the situation, and also modernize the legal code, add LICENSE = CC-BY-SA-4.0 and a clear CONTRIBUTING.md that makes clear contributions will be taken under that license.
CC-BY-SA-3.0 is forward-compatible with CC-BY-SA-4.0, so this change does not need to involve content predating the switchover.
But everyone who has added content (current count: 22) since the switchover will need to give informed consent to this for this to be merged.
Our previous site/wiki was a DokuWiki site with content under CC-BY-SA-3.0. All content on the site that predates the switchover on June 4th last summer is covered by that. See https://github.com/neuropoly/neuro.polymtl.ca/issues/73#issuecomment-1225177406.

Fixes https://github.com/neuropoly/intranet.neuro.polymtl.ca/issues/68, if everyone consents.
