I'm creating a Archlinux packaging, it's very important to know which license do you use.

And for best practices, every open source project needs a LICENSE file.

Technically, this code can't be legally used (in many jurisdictions) without some sort of license being granted, either in a blanket fashion that applies to everyone (eg. the Apache license) or a specific license granted by the creator to that individual.

GitHub makes it really easy to add a license to repos. Please set this code free and give it a permissive license! (Apache, MIT are preferable, Mozilla isn't bad, GNU is bad for many uses)
