From 888cf44d67fc20c26382700f0bcfaaf16fa03667 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrea Kao Date: Fri, 13 Apr 2018 11:09:39 -0700 Subject: Edit Open vSwitch license info so that GitHub recognizes it. GitHub uses a library called Licensee to identify a project's license type. It shows this information in the status bar and via the API if it can unambiguously identify the license. This commit creates a LICENSE file that stores the full text of the Apache license. It also removes the COPYING file and transfers its contents to a new "License" section in the README. Collectively, these changes allow Licensee to successfully identify the license type of Open vSwitch's codebase as Apache.
