Does every file in the upstream tarball need to have a license?

I'm reviewing Djblets:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=487098
which is a utility library used by ReviewBoard [1]

The upstream website:
http://code.google.com/p/reviewboard/wiki/Djblets states "Djblets is
under the MIT license."

However, the upstream tarball does not contain a license file.  Only
some of the files within the tarball contain license headers.  I believe
that every file with a "Copyright" also contains an MIT license grant.

(There's also an embedded copy of jquery, which is dual licensed MIT and
GPL)

The setup.py does state "MIT" in the license field, in the usual place
for such metadata (although said file is itself GPLv2 licensed).

Is this a problem for Fedora inclusion?

Thanks
Dave
