This project uses the BSD 3-clause license, which requires that the license be distributed with all copies of the source code:

The PyPI source tarball does not include such a copy of the license:

> curl -fsSL 'https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/source/c/click-default-group/click-default-group-1.2.2.tar.gz' | tar -tz

click-default-group-1.2.2/click_default_group.py
click-default-group-1.2.2/setup.cfg
click-default-group-1.2.2/setup.py

That makes it difficult/impossible to legally include in third-party/OS package repositories, which require packaged code to be distributed in a license-compliant manner. It would be great if the PyPI tarball could be updated to include the license!
