Permission to use your protocol documentation

[nicolas17]

I want to add APNS protocol documentation to the hack-different/apple-knowledge repository. I would like to use apple-push-protocol-ios5-lion.md as a base, to avoid having to write the document from scratch. I will likely edit it a lot to add my own findings later, but it will be easier to use this as a starting point.

The pushproxy repository has GPLv3 under LICENSE so it's presumed to apply to every file in the repository, including the documentation. Could you give us permission to relicense apple-push-protocol*.md under MIT + CC-BY-SA? Credit will be preserved in git history.

Thanks!

Hey @nicolas17, I'd be happy to license the documentation you referenced under CC-BY-SA. Why do you need MIT as well? I'm not sure I'd want to do that.

The apple-knowledge repository has "Code and data licensed under the MIT license. Documents also licensed under the CC-BY-SA". I interpret this as "documents are under MIT as well".

I don't know if there is a good justified reason for that or it was just "we need some license, whatever, this will do". So I'll discuss that first. It's possible we don't need MIT :)
