Hello, Jan. I was wondering if I could perhaps use or re-use, in whole or in part, pieces of this project in my own? I'm trying to build a home computer around the RISC-V ISA (see https://github.com/kestrelcomputer/ and its various sub-projects), and was wondering if I could help accelerate my progress by including pieces of miniatom in my own project.

Kestrel is a Mozilla Public Licensed project, meaning folks are free to either extend or embed pieces in other projects as they see fit. Copyleft-like stipulations only apply if they change or replace an existing source file, thus making my project friendly to LGPL, GPL, and BSD-derived licensed projects alike.

This is why I was wondering if there's a license surrounding this project, or if not, if I can get your written permission to re-use pieces of miniatom. Thanks!!
