I have looked at many of these and it seems the problem your are
noticing is they have a license text block as a comment at the top,
but the "license" specified for the %IRSSI settings is not referring
to that specific license.

Since the "license" setting allows plain text without a standard
format, I beleive that the authors have simply been less precise here
without realizing the potential confusion. As long as they specify the
same type of license, but the block is more precise about the specific
license versions, I think it will be fine for us to just use the
license text block which is more precise and limiting.

Thank you again for your work, and patience, on this!  I may be able
to work on this tonight, but hope to get this uploaded by tomorrow, if
not.

Cheers,
Ryan
