Re-license under apache and MIT

[gnzlbg]

The mach crate is currently licensed under the 2-clause-BSD license. To be able to use the mach crate from libstd, it would help if we could re-license the library (including all contributions), under the same licenses the Rust project uses: the MIT License and the Apache License 2.0. That is, the library would be available under 3 licenses: 2-clause-BSD/MIT/APACHE2.0.

These are all mach contributors:

• @gnzlbg
• @fitzgen
• @darfink
• @dcuddeback
• @nanotech
• @ndusart
• @luser
• @lashomb
• @jvns
• @gterzian
• @dhylands
• @bythebook

Would you all agree to that ?

[gnzlbg]

I've submitted a PR so that everyone can precisely see how the change would look like: #54 . It not only triple-licenses the library, but also requires all future contributions to be triple licensed as well.

[luser]

This license is fine with me.

[jvns]

fine by me!

[darfink]

fine with me as well

[dhylands]

fine by me.

[nanotech]

I'm fine with this re-license too

[codimension]

This is fine by me.

[ndusart]

It is fine for me too !

[gterzian]

I'm not very familiar with licensing, and if this doesn't affect our usage of mach in servo, I agree.

[gnzlbg]

@gterzian servo can still license the library under the exact same terms (2-clause-BSD license). Multiple licensing means that you can pick the license that suits you best.

[fitzgen]

👍 sounds good to me!

Ping @dcuddeback and @lashomb, it has been almost 2 weeks since first call.

@dcuddeback @lashomb - ping

@fitzgen in the current license you are the sole copyright holder for the crate.

I am not sure if this implies that you are able to re-license the crate at will, but it might be possible for you to do so. I've tried contacting both @dcuddeback and @lashomb (which only fixed some typos) privately per email without any luck. So I don't think they will respond any time soon.
