Description Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev

Created attachment 333800 [details]
licenses/mpich2

According to the COPYRIGHT files in both tarballs, these packages are distributed under attached license. I suggest that we follow Fedora nomenclature who call it "mpich2":
<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:MIT#mpich2_variant>

@Licenses team: This looks like a Free Software license to me.
