Hi Michael,

Basically, I wouldn't mind changing the license to an MIT-like one.

But:
- I couldn't find any clear indication in the zsh documentation/sources/website stating that contributions must be provided under the same license as zsh itself
- zsh ships completion functions released under the GPL (_darcs, _osc for instance)
- zsh is also known to be BSD-like (http://www.zsh.org/mla/workers/2008/msg00184.html)

All this leaves me in a confused state :-)
