Re: Differences in the license files

Hi Carlo,

- As Gilad pointed out, the file sourceLicense.html is the single
actual license.  The others are obsolete, from the previous release.

- The 1.0.1 source for download does not contain a vm-license.txt file
in the top level directory, so you may have mixed the 1.0 files in
with the 1.0.1 files on your disk.

- I have already noticed and fixed the documentation sourceLicense; it
 has been removed and links now point to the top level license file
(in the next release).

- I hadn't noticed the vm/vm-license.txt file.  I will remove that
also, thanks!

whereas the corrected sourceLicense.html  uses "redistribution" on its
last occurence. Not a biggie.  There is also another insignificant(?)
wording difference in the same sentence, "list of conditions" vs. "the
list of conditions".  Neither difference changes the meaning, most
importantly they do not contract each other.  And for a last wording
difference, the expression "Neither ... nor ..." (in vm-license.txt)
is more accurate that "Neither ... or '..".
