Maybe we should replace Boost with MIT for most of the Mir
packages. What do you think?
I can't speak to the technical differences between the two. My
understanding is that MIT is more permissive than Boost, but MIT
always requires the user to include a copy notice and Boost has
an exception.
Anyway, it looks like the dstats/distrib.d file [1] is based on
MathExtra [2] that is based on Cephes [3]. The dstat file looks
like it has a 3-part BSD license, while MathExtra is MIT
licensed. Cephes seems to be copyrighted.
