@Licenses team: This compares to the MIT license, roughly like BSD-4 compares to BSD. IMHO it can be added to the MISC-FREE license group.

I just see that the FSF lists a different license under Imlib2: <http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/License:Imlib2>

Let's follow Fedora and call this one "MIT-with-advertising":
