The MIT license is like the BSD license in that it's customized per
package.

Our original policy was to only distribute a common license in our license
package if it was used by two or more packages. Do any of our packages
have CC licenses?

I didn't know there was a difference between LGPL2 and LGPL2.1. Do more
than two packages use the LGPL2.0?

That's how I wrote the namcap rule. License data should have the same case
as the common license directory.
