What do you mean by it being court-proven? (There's probably something
I am not aware of, which is not surprising given that I'm not really
into licensing.)
I dislike the requirement "... provided that the above copyright notice
and this permission notice appear in all copies." I am not a lawyer,
but I think this doesn't allow derived versions to be placed under
certain other licenses (that would not give the same rights).
