Leah Rowe 20398fbec4 don't endorse specific licenses in git.md
since canoeboot is to be gnu fsdg in spirit, and practise,
it must not openly encourage use of the MIT license, no
matter how much i love that license

in practise, most of cbmk is GPL anyway, and the upstream
projects that it uses are also GPL, so this section is
entirely redundant.

remove it.

Leah Rowe 474c952192 don't require sending patches to libreboot first
i now wish for canoeboot to be its own project, entirely
isolated from libreboot. i myself will still use my own
preferred method: submit to libreboot and patch canoeboot
accordingly.

however, some users may wish to send to work on canoeboot
exclusively. this is permitted, as of now. i will simply
cherry-pick those patches into libreboot, where indicated.

Leah Rowe 1b9e28c3b8 extreme cleanup / grandiose gesture
make canoeboot a truly GNU FSDG compliant coreboot distro,
by removing all overly positive reference to Libreboot;
what remains is technical in nature, so as to provide
historical context since Canoeboot is a fork of Libreboot.

I've stated before that I wish to take a more neutral tone
toward the FSF, in contrast to the *coldboot war* of 2023
when GNU Boot started.

Canoeboot was heavily linking to Libreboot, even going so far
as to call itself "inferior" and tell the reader to use
Libreboot.

From now on, Canoeboot will be maintained as though I actually
believed in FSF propoganda. I don't, but its users do. Treat
them with respect. My reason for providing Canoeboot is
precisely that I wish for such people to have a high quality
coreboot distro, much unlike the inferior *GNU Boot* project;
inferior because to this day, it's still based on very old
Libreboot, with not much changed (of any real substance)
relative to the Libreboot 20220710 release on which it forked.

In general, I've also found a lot of stragglers from when
Canoeboot started, where paragraphs referred to Libreboot that
should have actually referred to Canoeboot, or paragraphs
with Libreboot-specific information that does not make sense
in the Canoeboot project e.g. references to vendor scripts.

The resulting canoeboot.org will now look no different to any
typical reader than a typical FSF-aligned project.

There is a next stage to this, which will become apparent to
everyone if I have my way.
