First cut at a landing page This is a VERY ROUGH take on the landing page. The basic idea is we want to present 3 licenses on the home page and just enough info for people to choose one of the three. But we'll provide links for folks who need to dig deeper and choose a license that better fits their needs. The design right now is blatantly stolen from KOD. But that's just to make the early draft look pretty. That's not the intended final design.

The <a href="license.html">MIT License</a> is a permissive license that is short and to the point. It lets people do anything with your code with proper attribution and without warranty.

<h3>I'm concerned about patents.</h3>
<p>
The <a href="license.html">Apache License</a> is a permissive license similar to the MIT License, but it provides a patent license for any code that infringes on a contributor’s patents.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Apache</strong>, <strong>SVN</strong>, and <strong>NuGet</strong> use the Apache License.

<h3>I care about reciprocity.</h3>
<p>
The GPL (<a href="license.html">V2</a> or <a href="license.html">V3</a>) requires that folks who modify your code also license their changes under the GPL. V3 is similar to V2, but adds a restriction restricting use in hardware that forbids software alterations.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Linux</strong> and <strong>Git</strong> use the GPL.
