IO should ship a copy of the EPL license in LICENSE #8

One requirement for licensing code under the EPL is that "a copy of this Agreement [the EPL] must be included with each copy of the Program." [0]. Unfortunately io does not comply with this requirement even though its project.clj claims that it is licensed under the EPL.

Additionally it would be nice if every source file could mention its license explicitly. That is it should include a statement of copyright and, for the EPL, a header such as:

THE ACCOMPANYING PROGRAM IS PROVIDED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS ECLIPSE PUBLIC
LICENSE ("AGREEMENT"). ANY USE, REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION OF THE PROGRAM
CONSTITUTES RECIPIENT'S ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Please fix this issue and release a new version of io as it is not legally distributable in its current form.

Good catch, thanks. That's what I get for not ensuring that those LICENSE files are in order.
