Description
Describe the problem as clearly as you can
bundler only seems to support the MIT license.
Post steps to reproduce the problem
bundle gem foo
From the docs:
"LICENSE.txt: Includes the MIT license. Will only be included if you chose to have it included."
Question for the community
Would you accept a PR that added the Hippocratic License 2.1 as a licensing option?
