I refuse to have anything to do with the people responsible for BIND, ISC dhcp, and ISC ntp. They can do no right in my eyes. At any rate, there's nothing wrong with the MIT license. It takes a few seconds longer to read and is just as clear. Plus, it explicitly extends its rights to the documentation and explicitly allows for sublicensing, which ISC doesn't.

Dan Bernstein hates BIND, too.  Use the DJB license: "Public domain"

Yes, hating BIND is Dan Bernstein's trademark. But "public domain" isn't a license, and until recently his code didn't even have that much of a license.
