Should you mention the version and unported-ness here, also?

(edit: The "license owner" is also required by the spec.)

Not sure what you mean by unported-ness. Can you clarify for me? :)

Regarding version -- the most current version of CC-BY-SA is 4.0, and it is different than the previous versions. The version should probably be mentioned. Regarding unported-ness, in the 3.0 version, there were "ports" to different countries legal systems. This isn't relevant for the 4.0 version.

See https://creativecommons.org/faq/#should-i-choose-an-international-license-or-a-ported-license and https://wiki.creativecommons.org/wiki/License_Versions for more detail.

Thanks. Let's just go with 4.0. Good call.

This needs @jbenet sign-off for the license. Might be a good idea to split this PR into two, and just have the License stuff in a separate PR. @JesseWeinstein You think the other Readme edits are fine?

Ok. I opened #137 to deal with that; one last review to make sure this looks ok, and then we can merge it.
