Missing license information for Emboss.ts

[kswartz26]

The comment headers point to http://www.pixastic.com/lib/license.txt for the license, but that URL no longer resolves.

Looking it up on the Internet Archive, it appears this code is licensed under the Mozilla Public License. This is quite different and less permissive than the MIT license for the top-level project, and should be explicitly called out, either in the top-level LICENSE file, a separate NOTICE file, or by correcting the information in Emboss.ts. It is otherwise very easy to inadvertently violate the terms of that license, as most developers would expect it to also be under an MIT license.

That is a good point. Can you make a Pull Request for that? I think mentioning in LICENSE file should be simpler.

I am thinking if we should just remove that filter and couple others. I feel like almost nobody is using that filter.

Just curios, how did you find it? Were you strictly checking all licenses in files?

I can do a pull request, although if you're going to remove the filter altogether, there's not much point. :)

Although it's probably a good idea to deprecate it for a while first.

Yes, I was checking for additional copyrights and licenses when I came across it.
