Great to hear that progress has been made on this! The MIT licence sounds like a good choice to me, so RGBDS can be helpful for as many people and projects as possible |

I'd personally put this in a header file for utf8decoder.h, just to make it obvious where this function lives, but I'm just splitting hairs here 😛

Done. I was just a bit lazy when I created that patch.

This way it is easier to identify the license of the code. Signed-off-by: Antonio Niño Díaz <antonio_nd@outlook.com>
With permission from the main authors [1], most of the code has been relicensed under the MIT license. SPDX license identifiers are used so that the license headers in source code files aren't too large. Add CONTRIBUTORS.rst file. [1] #128 Signed-off-by: Antonio Niño Díaz <antonio_nd@outlook.com>

The main contributors have agreed to relicense the code under the MIT license: #128
Some other files are still licensed under the ISC and BSD licenses, but they are compatible with the MIT license.
For now, the fact that all the rest of the codebase is consistent is enough.
In order not to have too long headers, I've used SPDX identifiers: https://spdx.org and https://github.com/david-a-wheeler/spdx-tutorial/blob/master/README.md
I've also added a
CONTRIBUTORS.rstfile.@csoren, @JustinLloyd, @vegard, @bentley, @stag019.
