This license is listed online for example at the Web site of XFree86 [1], Debian [2]. No name of the license is mentioned there. Gentoo just uses »MIT« [3].

There are some packages in OpenEmbedded using `MIT-X` and I guess they refer to the same license. I prefer »X/MIT« derived from the chapter name of [1] »MIT/X Licenses«.

I do not know anything about license names and just checked the WWW. It would be great if the OE crowd could decide on one name and use it consistently.
