Description

mobile/LICENSE is Expo's MIT license, copyright 650 Industries, inside this repo as if it covers mobile/. The repo root has no license file at all. Someone with authority over Ruby for Good's licensing needs to decide what actually covers this project and put it in one place.

Research direction

Start by inspecting mobile/LICENSE and confirming that the repository root has no license file. Review the repository layout and the issue context before identifying where the authoritative project license should live. Done means the licensing decision is reflected in one clear location and the Expo license is no longer presented as governing the project.
