[R-pkg-devel] Extending MIT software

[Charles Determan]

When developing a new package we want to have a license attributed to that
package.  That said, I am a little confused how one would approach the MIT
license.  I am working on a package that extends upon another library that
has the MIT license.  I know that I need to create a LICENSE file with YEAR
and COPYRIGHT HOLDER.

My question is, would the copyright holder be just the authors for this
given R package or a combination of the R package authors and the original
library authors?

Regards,
Charles
