It is not required. Just a bit confusing - Github is only able to detect
license info when you have a dedicated license file. Hence, Github
currently treats your repo as unlicensed - no license info is listed in
the "Info" sidebar.

non-GNU ELPA is also fine. The idea is to avoid asking users to add
extra package repo configuration. It will be the best if M-x
package-install just works. ELPA and non-GNU ELPA should be available by
default in newer Emacs versions.
