Cross-platform Rust rewrite of the GNU coreutils

The MIT license is two paragraphs long. The GPL is little more than a page, plus a very informative preamble.

Don’t take anyone’s word for what they say or which is better. Read them.

The terms and conditions part of the GPLv3 is 4,600 words long, which in typical formatting will be about 7–9 pages long. Not one.

I’m not sure I value the opinion of (or want to use software written by) someone who couldn’t read nine pages.
