@joneshf: I just pushed your repository to here - sorry for being impatient.

I just noticed there's no license. Would you be ok with MIT? Is assigning copyright to PureScript ok?

I think it would be nice to be able to reuse the work done here, so if the license could be clarified, that would be great. But we shouldn't redistribute code with no explicit license from purescript-node.

Copyright assignment isn't necessary either really. In the compiler, I try to arrange things so that contributors keep copyright and just license code to us for reuse. So in that sense, if the original code is licensed permissively, we can keep the original copyright notice and everything's good.

Ah yes, of course, sorry. Should I take this down for now then?

There was no license file originally, but it did say "license": "MIT" inside the package.json.

Either way works. Just let me know what I need to do, if anything.

In a4b0e74, I uploaded a copy of the MIT license into this repository, with you as the copyright holder, so nobody needs to do anything now :) unless, of course, you want to change anything about how it's licensed.
