Include LICENSE file in the distribution.

[kgambrel]

This is a low priority request, but it is helpful to larger organizations to have the copyright and license information in a single file in the root directory.
In order to validly license something an entity must declare some kind of ownership interest -- ie, the right to license. That is what the copyright statement accomplishes.

Thanks.

I started responding to this on #93 before I saw this one, so closing this as a dup and will carry on with conversation there.

I just wanted to re-raise this issue since I don't think the license file is actually being included in the source distribution, even though it's in the repo, since it's missing from the MANIFEST.in

This line led me astray. I'll try to get a release out that includes the license file soon and
call it 2.0.0.

I've spent an hour today trying to make LICENSE.txt show up in sdist and failed. I'd be happy to accept a PR to make it show up.

@lambacck -- I'm sorry you ran into issues trying to resolve this. I just submitted a pull request (#137) that I think puts the license file in the sdist. When I run python setup.py sdist on my local copy and then look at the tarball in dist/ it appears to be there.
