(Just note that I have not submitted the review request of this
  package and I won't do until this license issue is resolved)

I asked the developer to change the license to GPL or something,
but the developer said "I don't want to change this license"......

And note that it is not the first time for me that I asked to Callaway
about the translation of license originally written in Japanese and
he asked FSF about the translation (not mecab package)
