Free software license? #17

Open nileshpatra opened 4 years ago

nileshpatra commented 4 years ago

Hi, We have this project as a package in Debian currently Whilst I agree that every file containing "code" has a BSD license on top of it, but due to the absence of a LICENSE file, the data and documentation becomes non-free according to the free software guideline followed here. Could you please add in the same in a LICENSE file and commit? That'd be great.

PS: Considering that PAML has also adopted a free software license, this can also go about doing the same w/o conflicts, I suppose.

@rambaut could you please do the needful? :)

Hi, any news about this? It would be really helpful if there would be a clarification of the license. Kind regards, Andreas.
