Yes! /And/ *default to MIT.* Even though in this case Andreas chose other-than MIT on purpose, how many projects are not MIT simply because the default is a choice other than "the one most valuable to the community." Let's use this opportunity to improve for the future :)

Despite the fact every thing I published was MIT, I would not like to be forced to, even by default. I prefer the license to be kept an explicit engagement.

Where am I not looking, that I can't see WebClient's licence? If I look at http://www.squeaksource.com/SipStack/ for instance I see a Licence title and paragraph.
Perhaps we should always have a Licence paragraph, even if it only says "the author has not chosen a licence" or something.
