 use any license you like but people often pick common open source licenses
 and it's useful if we can automatically recognise that (eg so we can display
 it on the hackage web pages). So you can also specify the license itself in
 the <TT

 includes <TT

 is not actually a license, but states that you are not giving
 anyone else a license to use or distribute your work.  The comments
 below are general guidelines.  Please read the licenses themselves
 and consult a lawyer if you are unsure of your rights to release
