License for echo.rs and Rust by Example

[vks]

@Arcterus @Heather @ebfe
(I apologize if this is not the right channel.)

I have written a chapter for Rust by Example on command-line arguments and I used a drastically simplified version of uutils' echo for one example.

Rust by Example's license is Apache and MIT, uutils' license is MIT, but it has a different name in the copyright notice. If I understand the license correctly, I would have to include it in Rust by Example.

Do you think I can use the code without changing or adding copyright notices in Rust by Example?

(The two echo implementation diverged significantly by now, compare my implementation to uutils'.)

[Arcterus]

Given that the implementations are so different and you've stated that the code is adapted from uutils, I have no problem with you submitting the code without using the MIT license. :)

I'd wait to hear what everyone else thinks before merging the code, though.

@Seldaek may also be interested in this.

Just to be clear: My code will be dual-licensed (MIT and Apache, just like Rust itself).

[Arcterus]

Oh, well that's even better. 😄

[Seldaek]

Completely fine by me, and I think legally there isn't much we could do anyway ;)
