The MIT License is a permissive free software license, imposing minimal restrictions on the redistribution of covered software. This is in contrast to copyleft licenses like the GPL, which have reciprocity share-alike requirements. The MIT license is named for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where it originated.
See the Wikipedia article on the MIT license for more information.
