Description
The "MIT" licence does not actually exist. It's a nickname to the X11 licence, which is close to the revised BSD one. But the MIT has used many licences over time. Even though it's a known fact and might legally work, naming which we mean is much better. We should choose either X11 or BSD-revised, and use the correct name everywhere. See http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#X11License
