Spec Name or Url: http://fedora.ivazquez.net/files/extras/embryo.spec SRPM Name or Url: http://fedora.ivazquez.net/files/extras/evas-0.9.1.023-1.src.rpm Description: Embryo implements a C like scripting language used in various parts of the Enlightenment project, namely Edje. Embryo's scripting language is based on CompuPhase's Small language that was introduced in Dr Dobb's Journal in 1999. Embryo allows scripting capabilities in places that otherwise wouldn't support basic programming structures such as in Edje EDCs.
I think you gave the link to the wrong srpm there, but I found the proper one and gave a quick look. Are you sure that license is MIT? It seems to have an advertising clause that is not in the stock MIT license as found at http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php, and indeed seems closer to the three clause BSD license (but I'm no expert). Here is the clause: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies of the Software and its Copyright notices. In addition publicly documented acknowledgment must be given that this software has been used if no source code of this software is made available publicly. This includes acknowledgments in either Copyright notices, Manuals, Publicity and Marketing documents or any documentation provided with any product containing this software. This License does not apply to any software that links to the libraries provided by this software (statically or dynamically), but only to the software provided.
The BSD license prevents the use of the name of <ORGANIZATION> from being used to endorse or promote derived products, whereas this license requires acknowledgement if the source code is not made available. While it isn't MIT per se, it's certainly not BSD.
