The canonical make-plural package is now licensed with the OSI-approved Unicode Data Files and Software License, as it is based on the data provided in the cldr-core package, which is thus licensed. The make-plural-compiler and make-plural-compiler packages are my original work, and continue to be ISC-licensed.

The actual text of said license that's included is taken from here, which was recently updated following this issue in the CLDR bug tracker.

All prior releases of make-plural should probably be considered to be bound by this same license, given that they too are based on data provided by Unicode. I'm not really sure if something ought to be done about them, as they did not include this license text. @srl295, would you know if I should do something more?

BREAKING CHANGE: The canonical 'make-plural' package is now licensed
with the OSI-apporved Unicode Data Files and Software License, as it is
based on the data provided in the 'cldr-core' package, which is thus
licensed.

@eemeli the CLDR license has always been in fact https://www.unicode.org/copyright.html - it was an error that cldr-core had different text and was missing the correct SPDX identifier. So I think this is correct.

Thank you for that clarification! I'm working on a new make-plural release, and will be very happy to include this license change in it.
