The file may not have a license header, but the repository has a license file at its root:
https://github.com/borisyankov/DefinitelyTyped/blob/master/LICENSE The part of the header that says "Project: http://canvasjs.com/"; is referring to which project that this d.ts file should be used *with*. Not that this d.ts file was borrowed from that project. The d.ts files in DefinitelyTyped are all MIT licensed. It's the whole point that this repository exists in the first place. - Josh On Fri, May 29, 2015 at 3:51 PM, Justin Mclean <jus...@classsoftware.com> wrote: > HI, > > > Good.
