Re: licensecheck output (MIT License)

Hi David,

I see the MIT License on the allowed licenses page, see the attached screenshot. Unless you have a MIT license with special modifications, you can use the "MIT" specifier.

https://spdx.org/licenses/MIT.html 

Cheers,

Hi,

I tried to update python gelidum to SPDX.

I wanted to check the license file [0] with licensecheck.

The output is "MIT License". As I was not sure whether that is old notation or SPDX, I checked the documentation [1], and that says it is "Full name" instead.

I went to the list of allowed license [2] and searched for "MIT License" - but there is no license with such a name.

Do I need to open an issue for that license at [3]?
Are the docs at [1] wrong?
Did I use the wrong tool?

Thanks,
David
