Very often, I have defaulted on the Apache license, but other people prefer MIT. A dual license seems to please everyone.

@WojciechMula It seems Apache is something people like because it prevents unexpected (submarine) patent lawsuits while MIT is 'do whatever'.

Dual-licensing costs us nothing. From my perspective, our code is anyway "do whatever". :)
