I propose that we decide on the correct way of doing things first, then
decide a plan of action from that. And that includes an opinion from
someone who knows what they're talking about, whether it be legal advice
or a clarification to the point of the licenses directory.
As Carsten pointed out one e-mail down in the thread, there's no real
documentation about what licenses should be, so currently it's a "he
said-she said" issue.
Every other package maintainer manages to get it right. That it's a bit
more work to do things properly is no excuse.
You seem to contradict your above statement here. In any case, it's
less work to just make almost everything MIT.
