xsampa.py lack of license

See original GitHub issue

praatio/utilities/xsampa.py is listed as “does not carry any license”. IANAL, but my understanding is that without any license, no one has permission to use it. It may be included in the source of the project with permission, but without an explicit license for the file no one else can know exactly how they are allowed to use it, if at all. Is there any way to contact the author and get a specific license for the file, such as MIT like the main project?

@timmahrt Sorry, I am not a lawyer. I really don’t know what would be considered sufficient in this case. Removing it is probably safe if we doesn’t want to put either a license on his site or a new version of the file with a license in the file itself. If he wants other people to use his code then providing a license would facilitate that, but that is up to him.

If its ok, I’ll close this issue. All of the unlicensed code has been removed.

Please feel free to open it for further discussion.
