Hey, all-
I was looking upstream at a new-to-me license (PIL license used in Pillow).
It is MIT-ish, but ... to my mind, definitely not MIT. Line them up side-by-side and you'll
see reasonably large differences. (GitHub's
`licensee` reports the two licenses as a ~56% match, which is an
imperfect measure but indicative)
I was
considering filing it as a new-ish license at SPDX, so I checked "is
this packaged in Fedora", and I see that the Fedora python-pillow spec simply labels this MIT.
So
my question: what should this be labeled as in Fedora? If the answer is
MIT, is there any guidance (formal or informal) on when MIT considers
an MIT-ish license close enough?
Thanks-
Luis
