Hello legal mailing list,
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:Main?rd=Licensing#Discussion_of_Lic...
Discussion of Licensing in Fedora (along with any other Fedora legal items which are not considered confidential) takes place on the legal@lists.fedoraproject.org mailing list. The list is open to any interested subscribers, but is moderated such that only subscribers may directly post.
Could you give me an advice about how to set "Expat" license to a spec file's "License" tag? https://github.com/samtools/htslib/blob/develop/LICENSE
Because "Expat" is not included in below "Shot Name" list. https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=Licensing:Main&rd=Licensing#...
Thanks.

My understanding is that the "Expat" license is what we call "MIT". This looks like the identical text:

Hi Jerry, thanks for your info! I also found below text in Wikipedia.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIT_License#License_terms
A common form of the MIT License is this (taken from the Open Source Initiative's website; this is identical to the "Expat License", and different from the license used in the X source code):[11]
Shall someone add a comment about Expat license that is same with MIT to below document? Because I usually do browser search to find a license value in below page. I think it's useful for people like me. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:Main?rd=Licensing
Thanks.
