The main word list is already using the MIT license (see
http://repo.or.cz/w/wortliste.git); consequently, the mechanically
derived hyphenation patterns are MIT also.  The only thing is that
we've missed yet to update the header file's license strings (in the
`daten/*.1' files) used to generate the final output files.  This gets
fixed eventually – or you might even provide patches :-)

We would like to add a `who's using the patterns?' page to our Wiki,
so please tell us for what project you are going to use them.
