I don't care much about the license in this case, since we are talking about 
something pretty simple. I just concentrated on the code that evening and 
simply copied the license clauses...

I would like to see a consensus here just to avoid further discussions about 
licenses (there have been far too many).

Ángel González already 'voted' for a MIT license.
Daniel, you prefer a BSD license.
I am OK with either one.
Any other votes ?
