  The MIT license is compatible with both the GPL and commercial
  software, affording one all of the rights of Public Domain with the
  minor nuisance of being required to keep the above copyright notice
  and license text in the source code. Note also that by accepting the
  Public Domain "license" you can re-license your copy using whatever
  license you like.
