Hi,
I would like to package httpstat.
It uses the MIT license:
https://github.com/reorx/httpstat/blob/master/LICENSE
However I didn't find MIT in licenses.scm.
Is there a compatible license?
Thanks,
Stefan.

The name ‘MIT licence’ is considered ambiguous by (amongst others) the
FSF[1]. This is probably the ‘expat’ licence, which you will find in
licenses.scm.

Hi Stefan,
I believe the "expat" license is the one you're looking for. That
license looks a lot like the sample here:
https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/License:Expat.
Fun fact: The Expat and "MIT" licenses are the same thing. Expat is the
GNU/FSF name for it.

Ugh, are my mails missing the list again? :-/
(Sorry to go off topic, but I had similar troubles on bug-guix this
morning.)
Kind regards,

No, I took a while to send my message. By the time I refreshed my inbox,
your message was there.
