Lerna license change, a follow up  ↦

Yesterday’s PR to restrict the MIT license on Lerna has been reverted by @evocateur

First, I apologize for making the rash decision to support the addition of an unenforceable clause to the project’s MIT license. I failed to accurately assess the impact of this change, which led me to (incorrectly) focus on the intent. Despite the most noble of intentions, it is clear to me now that the impact of this change was almost 100% negative, with no appreciable progress toward the ostensible goal aside from rancorous sniping and harmful drama.

I am reverting the license changes. In the future, such changes (if any) will go through a much more thorough, completely public, and fair-minded process.
