guile-json, SRIFs and licenses

[Zelphir Kaltstahl]

Hi!

What is the requirement in terms of licenses for SRFI implementations?

I personally think that MIT is a terrible license (one of the I don't
care licenses) as it does not make sure, that modifications flow back to
the community. Do SRFIs require MIT license? And if so, why?
