The binary is built from source licensed under both AGPLv3+ and MIT terms. 
What's the problem here?  Why should the tag list only one fo these two just
because upstream doesn't mention the other in the README file?

These files were written by different people and I doubt the mujs author is
relicensing them in this project.

I still like the current variant better.
