[MetaCRS] Proj4js license

[Michael Adair]

Richard, Stephen, Didier, and any other contributors I may have missed,

Does anyone have any objection to moving Proj4js to use a more liberal 
license (I am suggesting the MIT license used by the Proj.4 library)?  
If not, I can make the change and issue a new release.

Mike

I'm not sure why that license was chosen but it probably came as a carry-over from the MapBuilder project.  The intention for has always been for there to be no restrictions on using the library, so I'm proposing changing the Proj4js license to use the MIT license.
