Include license file in the distribution or update README.md link to the license

See original GitHub issue

That’s minor and reflects production mode installation only. When the package is added as dependency there is no LICENSE file included. The link to the license in the README.md is relative, so it points nowhere in local installation. I’d ask to either update the README.md (I could do this) link to point to static absolute url or just ship the license file alongside the distribution. I’m aware that package.json comes with license type.

Thanks!

I guess Lerna needs to be updated first, that will need a PR
