Hello Ka,

Thanks for the hint.

I've found this on ChangeLog:
---
2007/02/14
----------
        + updated configure script.
        + add -V (version) option (requested by Reuben Thomas).
        + change license to MIT-style (requested by Reuben Thomas).
---

Is this enough info to define it as ISC or MIT? Or should I contact author?

Thanks,
