Yes, the R project suggests projects to only submit a LICENSE file with
the two attribution lines for year and copyright holder, and set the
=E2=80=9CLicense=E2=80=9D field in the DESCRIPTION file as =E2=80=9CMIT +=
 file LICENSE=E2=80=9D.

Here are the instructions including the remainder of the license for
reference:

    https://www.r-project.org/Licenses/MIT

PS: I still need to update the importer to select the Expat license by
default when it encounters =E2=80=9CMIT + file LICENSE=E2=80=9D in the DE=
SCRIPTION file.
