This repository had no license file, which by default reserves all rights and gives nobody else permission to reuse its contents. This PR adds the MIT License for the code and a README section that puts original text and figures under CC BY 4.0.

This is part of a license pass across the PolicyEngine, Thesis Institute, Axiom Foundation, UBI Center and Cosilico repositories (2026-09-17): MIT for code, CC BY 4.0 for original text and figures, and AGPL-3.0 retained for the model packages that derive from OpenFisca.

A scan of the default branch (dependency manifests at any depth, then Python, notebook and Quarto sources) found no dependency on PolicyEngine's AGPL-licensed Python packages.

Notes:

  • No Markdown README at the repository root, so only the license file is added.

Contributors who object to these terms for their contributions can open an issue on this repository.

Status (2026-09-17): not merged by the sweep. The only failing check is Changelog fragment. This repository requires a fragment in changelog.d/ on every PR, and a fragment on the default branch drives the version bump and npm publish (.github/workflows/push.yml), so this PR leaves it out on purpose: add changelog.d/license-mit.added.md to ship this as its own release, or fold it into the next one.
