Licensing: GitHub reports the license as NOASSERTION although the README says Apache-2.0 #6

Description

@beyondnetPeru

README.md states the project is licensed under Apache 2.0, but the GitHub API reports this repository's license as NOASSERTION — meaning the LICENSE file does not match the canonical Apache-2.0 text closely enough for GitHub's license detector to recognize it.

Effect: no license chip on the repo homepage, and the license scanners companies run over their dependency tree flag the package as "unknown license". That is a hard blocker for enterprise adoption — exactly the audience this library targets.

Acceptance criteria

  • LICENSE contains the verbatim Apache-2.0 text (the appendix boilerplate may carry the copyright line; nothing else altered).
  • Any project-specific attribution moved to DISCLAIMER.md or a NOTICE file.
  • GitHub displays "Apache-2.0" on the repo homepage after merge.
