Why MIT and not Apache 2.0
--------------------------
sql-sop is published on PyPI (https://pypi.org/project/sql-sop/) and
has been consumed as an MIT-licensed dependency by downstream users
since v0.1.0. Relicensing a published package is a breaking change for
users whose compliance pipelines are configured around a specific
licence. If and when a major version bump (v1.0.0) happens, Apache 2.0
will be considered at that point with a clear migration notice.

Third-party dependencies
------------------------
sql-sop is a zero-dependency-at-runtime package (the core checker uses
only the standard library). Optional extras pull in:

- sqlparse (BSD-3-Clause) — structural rules, optional
- libCST (MIT) — Python file scanning, optional (`pip install "sql-sop[python]"`)

Each optional dependency's licence prevails over anything in this
NOTICE file when that extra is installed.

Trademarks
----------
"sql-sop" is not a registered trademark. If you fork or redistribute a
modified version, please rename it so users can distinguish your fork
from the upstream.
