Tom,
Since any choice of a single default license for code is likely to be
viewed by some as making some sort of a statement could you explain a
little bit about the rationale for selecting the MIT License variant
that was chosen as the initial default covering code contributions
that are submitted without license preference?
I presume Red Hat Legal is fine with any free license?! Who selected
the MIT License?
Thanks,
John
