MIT license questions

Hi,

I have questions about the software manifest in ti-processor-sdk-linux-xxxx-xxxx.
please tell me.

1.
I can not be found the copyright notice of MIT license about some packages.

examples:
- arago-gpl-notice in ti-processor-sdk-linux
- initscript-telnetd in ti-processor-sdk-linux
- thermal-init in ti-processor-sdk-linux
 etc...

Who is copyright ?
If there is no copyright note in MIT license, what should we do ?

2.
libc6, libc6-dev are "MIT" license.
Why is that ?

I think the license depends on the included packages.
- If using eglibc, it will be LGPL.

3.
packagegroup-core-boot is "MIT" license.
Why is that ?

packagegroup-core-boot is included the some packages.
- udev, busybox, sysvinit, initscripts, keymaps, etc.
-> udev in ti-processor-sdk-linux-am335x-evm-02.00.00.00 is GPLv2.0+.
-> busybox in ti-processor-sdk-linux-am335x-evm-02.00.00.00 is GPLv2 & bzip2.

I think the license depends on the included packages.


Best Regards,
Yasunori
