I noticed that the build is using JSHint now, and before I consider syncing it with the proposed options from the JavaScript best practices (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/117595/), I wanted to double check and be sure Horizon got past the legal problem with the good/evil licensing.

Some background for those who are not aware. JSHint was authored by Doug Crockford, and he added an extra line in the licensing, "The software shall be used for good, not evil". The issue is in the definition of what is good and what is evil. It is too subjective, what is evil differs from person to person therefore ends up being a liability and leaving users open to frivolous lawsuits.

Did Horizon get permission or find some way around the licensing issue?
