Some parts are derived from code that is part of the open source Julia project, see the Julia license (since not all contributors to Julia are not displayed by the Julia contributor's list, instead use git (git log | grep "Author:" | sort -u) to get a full list), in particular base/char.jl, base/strings/*, test/strings/*
This also incorporates a large amount of code from various PRs I made, which were merged into Julia for v0.4.x, although some of that code was later moved to LegacyStrings in v0.5.x:
