Consider adopting a well-known license?

The current license text in the readme isn't one of the "standard" licenses, I thought I'd suggest adopting one of the well-known licenses - here's a list of common ones, and a list of even more

I think the BSD Zero Clause license is closest to what's currently in the readme file, or maybe the Unlicense. If you want attribution, MIT is also pretty close.

The main benefit is making decisions easier for other projects - like certain Linux distros get picky about the licenses attached to software. If they can't quickly classify it, they probably just won't package it.

I'm aware of common licenses, and do not wish to use them at this time.
