Should we also mention that content is creative commons (CC-BY-4.0)? There is a lot of text (or maybe we can simply include this in the footer of the website?)

Totally. I think we should use CC-BY for text and figures, except where explicitly stated.
Does it make sense to use CC-BY as the license in the Myst configuration then?
I think it's easier to just use CC-BY for the whole repo, than specifying MIT for code and CC-BY for text and figures. @dccowan, since you authored most of the content in this repo, do you agree with licensing it under CC-BY? Feel free to comment here or just merge the PR if you agree. |

Just noticed that we can set two licenses through Myst. Thanks for the comment @lheagy
I'm merging this. In case we change our minds on the licenses, we can discuss it in future issues/prs. |
Add CC-BY and MIT licenses snippets in the
README.md
and configure them for the Myst website inmyst.yml
. Add CC-BY license text in a newLICENSE-CC-BY
file.Fixes #7
For reference, the licenses that can be set in the Myst configuration file are listed here: https://mystmd.org/guide/frontmatter#licenses
