Not complying with licensing

[aidanheerdegen]

The current CICE licence requires that the copyright notice and disclaimers in the license be retained.

I think it should be sufficient to add the licence file to the repo, and the distribution policy too I suppose, as it is referenced therein.

This is the CICE6 license - does it apply retrospectively to CICE5?

[aidanheerdegen]

Good question. No idea.

The CESM version has no licence, so maybe we're sweet

See COSIMA/access-om2#264 (comment)

CESM has a separate copyright page where they link to the CICE5 license (which they really should have in the GitHub repo) which is pretty much the same as the one I linked above. The licence file needs to be included in the repo.
