What license is this repo code under?

I would like to use it to generate article fulltext html from JATS XML.

Answer 1 · 2016-10-14T20:40:58.000Z

@hubgit is this code distributed under some CC license??

The XSL and PHP files in /src are MIT-licensed:
https://github.com/PeerJ/jats-conversion/blob/master/src/LICENSE

The files in /schema are collected from various sources, which will be covered by their own licenses instead.

I suggest putting the LICENSE file into the root folder. Then GitHub shows very prominently the license label. Otherwise people may leave your project, because they think it does not have a license (and hence is not officially open source).

Oh! Are the license for the respective schemas in the /schema folder given somewhere? All licenses demand you to hand the user a copy of the respective license together with the code.
Sorry for bugging you with this issue, but I am currently very sensitive to this topic and just want to give a hint.
