[Fedora-legal-list] What license it is?

[Pavel Shevchuk]

I want to submit spec for eet, but don't know what license it is.
Developers call it old-style BSD, but for me it looks closer to MIT
feh variant. Also, it's very close to license used for e16 components
which is named "MIT with advertising" on fedora licensing page. What
to write in "License" field of spec? Thanks in advance
