Simpler License Terms — ideally MIT/BSD compatible

[jaukia]

Looking at the current license terms, it is very difficult for me to understand what the implications of using apca-w3 in my web app would be and what risks are related to it. I think in both web app companies and OS community, it is often the case that only MIT/BSD compatible code is approved and tools with any custom licenses are avoided, since they would require an (expensive) legal check and potentially cause risks for company financing etc.

I can work around that and even consider using WCAG 2.0 contrast if I have to. But I'm worried that this will slow down adoption of the better contrast calculations, since many open-source and commercial tool devs might be hesitant to take the library in the use.

It is your right to decide what license to use, but just wanted to share this insight — though perhaps this is obvious for you already.
