Add copyright and license text for bundled/vendored ruamel.yaml

Open musicinmybrain opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

The MIT license of ruamel.yaml requires the copyright statement and license text to be reproduced in copies, but these are not present for the newly bundled/vendored copy in strictyaml. Many projects at least have this text in the Python source file headers, but ruamel.yaml does not. (The LICENSE.txt file for strictyaml is also MIT, but correctly has a different copyright statement.)

Including a copy of the LICENSE file from ruamel.yaml somewhere in the source tree and adding it to MANIFEST.in would probably be the easiest way to handle this.

Thanks for the heads up. I will do this.
