Sweet. Would be nice if that was in the README too as it only mentions the BSD license, but the top level includes the GPL as well. There's still the open patent question but this (i.e. BSD license) makes it easier to decide to use it.

  It is mentioned at the bottom of the README, but it isn't very findable. I've opened a PR https://github.com/facebook/zstd/pull/1085 https://github.com/facebook/zstd/pull/1085.
