That's precisely the reason why the GPL and LGPL licenses were created.
Even though I love the MIT license, I think it would be a mistake to put
the whole lisaac source under the MIT license.

The MIT license basically says you can do whatever you like. If we want
restrictions (and we want them), we have to use a license designed with
them instead of trying to create our own license.
