What is the license of the ToLWeb code? I vaguely recall someone
saying MIT, but am not sure anymore.

I don't think we have ever formally decided, as it hasn't formally been released. What would the group recommend?

TreeBASE is under BSD license now, so one could just use that for the
sake of homogeneity. BSD also doesn't lose much to MIT in terms of
permissiveness for reuse.

The license text is here: http://www.opensource.org/licenses/bsd-license.php

Another option would be Apache.
