In order to clarify the licensing of mesa-demos i propose to add the attach copying file. I simply cut/paste the MIT license preserving the close forbidding use of silicon graphics in advertising for the software.
I am not a lawyer or anythings close to that so let me know if i did somethings wrong. I think pretty much all the mesa demos author agreed on the MIT license. If i have no objections over the next 2 week i will push the COPYING file.
