Perhaps I should simply contact the guy and ask if we would change the license 
;-)

Hi,

Flex extra is free to do what ever it wants, go ahead and add it. Downstream 
consumers of flex extras need to weight up the legal risks of using what is 
hosted there.

I think oddly enough the original FlexOrm is BSD licensed not MIT? [1] Both MIT 
na BSD are compatible with Apache 2.0 iso not really an issue. But to know the 
full picture you need to know all the contributors, their employment status and 
a lot of other things to know if the code is unencumbered IP wise.
