Sorry to be too late for comments on the pull request.

You should include the MIT license in the repo (maybe as LICENSE_software or LICENSE_code or something like this), since the MIT license expects some copyright holder to be cited:

Copyright <YEAR> <COPYRIGHT HOLDER>

Permission is hereby granted, free of charge [...]

If you only link to the openlicenses.org page, you don't specify the copyright holder. I now, the copyright holder is given in the README, but it might be a good idea to include them also in an own license file.

Do you want to add all contributors as copyright holders or something more general like "Sigma2" or "SDF at IT at UiT"?

I think formally the copyright is by default with the employer.
