Possible to download license body? #3

This API is great! However, I find it unable to actually download the contents of a license.

Instead, the only thing provided in the text dict is a link to the opensource.org page. Is there a way to directly download the license body? Or will it require some web scraping?

@codemonkey800 Great point!

I started to check them into the licenses repo, but they're not in the API. I'll put this on the queue!

https://github.com/OpenSourceOrg/licenses/tree/master/texts/plain for the text files; I'll file a bug on API repo now

We're restarting the project and this is definitely a capability we will need as we intend to build opensource.org/licenses from the API at some point in the future.
