It's tedious to determine what license a project is under. It would be nice if 
I could run a script and it would figure it out for me. Do we already have one? 
My thoughts for how this could be done, for simple cases anyway, is to locate 
the license file in the tarball looking for several common filenames, normalize 
the formatting of its contents, and compare it with known license texts to see 
which one it's most similar to.
