Please whitelist the showdown library [#2367281]

The license used is the "Modified BSD License"

Project page: https://github.com/showdownjs/showdown
License file: https://github.com/showdownjs/showdown/blob/master/license.txt

This library is used by the DKAN distro, please see https://github.com/NuCivic/dkan/issues/226 for details.

Name: Showdown
Repository: https://github.com/showdownjs/showdown
License file: https://github.com/showdownjs/showdown/blob/master/LICENSE
License identifiers: MIT
Size: 294 Kbyte
Need: https://www.drupal.org/project/dkan

It is now MIT. I don't see anything under Apache in this. This can be moved to RTBC.

However, the DKAN distro that uses this has no releases. Is this library still needed?

If there is no response in two weeks, the request will be closed as outdated.

I confirmed the license is Modified BSD, the repository is the primary author (not a fork), and the compressed download is ~ 100K, but this repository contains at least one piece of additional code licensed as Apache2...

Unfortunately this cannot be whitelisted unless #1449452: Give installation profiles/distributions GPLv3+ license as option for packaged downloads move forward. I've added DKAN to the list of distributions that are forced to use GitHub without a GPLv3 option on Drupal.org.
