Re: [paho-dev] Redis persistence patch and hiredis dependency

Thanks Mike - I was guided towards the 3rd party licenses policy by the IP team.

AFAIUI Paho code is all jointly licensed EPL and EDL already, and
that's what the "Approved Licenses for Non-Code, Example, and Other
Content" document refers to as well.

Very keen to take PMC direction on this.
