[Fedora-legal-list] Ambiguous license stated by upstream

Hi, I came into this issue while I was reviewing python-gitapi[1] in BZ. The author does not include a license file in the sources, and even worse, one can read this in the README[2] file: <snip> License Copyright (c) Fredrik Håård Do whatever you want, don't blame me. You may also use this software as licensed under the MIT or BSD licenses, or the more permissive license below: Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so: THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT.

The packager patched the package adding a MIT license copy. I'm not sure what to do about this. I added FE-Legal as blocking bug to the package review ticket. I hope you can give me some guidance.
