Good afternoon. The ISC (Internet Software Consortium) license[1] is a permissive, open-source license that is considered "functionally equivalent"[2] to the Simplified (2-clause) BSD[3] and MIT[4] licenses, but with extraneous language removed. There is at least one package on CRAN which incorporates some code using it[5]. Are there plans to include this license in the list at <https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/share/licenses/license.db>? Will packages developed for R using this run into problems during submission?
