Committer MIT License Declaration #18
Description
As "diorcety" recently pointed out, we have entered into a slightly ambigious licensing state for the project. Whilst the project has always been MIT license, some contributors have been able to add code without explicitly stating that their contributions would fit in with the license. As we all benefit from an open and engaged pool of committers, I propose using this issue for all committers to this project to declare that their contributions (to this project only) were made under the MIT license of this project. That is, all contributions are made under MIT license, and that their contributions fall under the following terms:
Past/Future committers - please reply to this thread with the text "I permit my contribution(s) to be released under the MIT license as shown in the original post in this thread."
