Please add a LICENSE (or LICENSE.md or LICENSE.txt) file to the repository, ideally using an OSI https://opensource.org/ approved open source licence compatible with the wider R Bioinformatics community to maximise uptake and reused. e.g. MIT license.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I've changed the licence in the description to GPL. I believe this means the licence file itself doesn't need bundled?
