it depends on our own policy, which we will introduce. If we state
that we accepting a submissions only with 'MIT' (all capital)
and reject all others, then rest is not our problem.

it gives us an another lever of control on submitted code in order to
lessen the probability that submitted code will be under wrong
license.
