+Licensing History
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+
+.. note::
+    libspatialindex changed from a `LGPL`_ to a `MIT`_ license as of the 1.8.0
+    release. For most situations, this should have no impact on the library's
+    use, but it should open it up for usage in situations that otherwise might
+    have been problematic. Versions of libspatialindex prior to 1.8.0 were
+    licensed LGPL 2.0, with the license description on this file. The codebase
+    has been been updated, with licensing information replaced in headers and
+    source files, to use the MIT license as of the 1.8.0+ release.
+    
+    This change was made to support the inclusion of software depending on 
+    libspatialindex in static linking-only environments such as embedded systems 
+    and Apple's iOS. libspatialindex versions prior to 1.8.0 will continue to 
+    live on as LGPL software, and developers can continue to contribute to them 
+    under terms of that license, but the main development effort, and ongoing 
+    maintenance, releases, and bug applications, will move forward using the 
+    new MIT license at http://github.com/libspatialindex/libspatialindex
