Readers of this group may recall that conversion of Libmarpa to an MIT/Lua
license was discussed, but got side-tracked because I combined the proposal
with an unpopular proposal to change to copyright assignment.  Ruslan S.
has generously agreed to take this on, so that I can concentrate on coding.

I believe that conversion to the MIT license had a consensus, but it is an
important matter, and I wanted to be sure.

By the way, I am grateful to David Yingling for taking on the task of
expressing the growing dislike of copyright assignment, and thereby
stopping me from taking what might well have been a counter-productive step.
