use 'object.assert = other' instead of 'object.assert == other'.
This was added simply becuase I found I often made the mistake
of a missing '=', and since #assert= has no definition, there
was no reason not to have behave accordingly.

Also note that I switched the license from LGPL to MIT.
With regards to reusable libraries and I moving all my
work, such that I am able, to MIT to maximize free usage.
