btrfs-progs relicensing update

[Andy Grover]

Hi all,

In the process to relicense btrfs-progs to LGPLv2.1[1], we have 40 of 
114 approvals so far. I have sent mass-emails to everyone with more than 
1 commit, and am now sending individual emails down the list to people I 
haven't heard from.

(I'm waiting to tackle the single-commit people until we get all the 
more major contributors.)

Here's progress so far:

If you are a contributor and haven't yet given your ok, please feel free 
to reply to me off-list with this text:

-I grant permission to re-license my contributed code to btrfs-progs
under the GNU LGPLv2.1 license.-

and I'll be sure to count you :-)

Thanks -- Regards -- Andy

[1] this is to allow btrfs-progs to be used as a library without 
licensing considerations.
