Waldek,
now that you suggest that LICENSE.AXIOM can be downloaded from github,
I think we can savely remove "license/" completely and write a note to
the end of the LICENSE file that the orginal NAG license file is in the
very first commit of the git repository.
It would be safe to check this out even on case insensitive file systems.

I have confirmed that unpacking fricas-master.zip (from GitHub)
on Windows causes problem: "LICENSE" is created while "LICENSE.AXIOM"
is not. (Similar problem might happen for git checkout.)
So considering rename the "license/" directory? (e.g. "licence")
Well, I am not sure if that is really a problem. One reason to
keep license/LICENSE.AXIOM is because people where told that
orignal NAG license is there. Renaming would defeat this.
OTOH Windows and Mac folks can fetch LICENSE.AXIOM from Github,
I think that is enough. So as long as download do not produce
errors I think that we can live with this.
