If I merge them, which text do I keep? I didn't do a word-for-word comparison, I usually recognise Expat because it uses some specific legalese terms. So thank you for being so precise when looking into this. If they're different enough (somewhat of an edge case here, maybe Khronos includes material that may not be universally considered "software" such as images or fonts?), you should indeed keep two entries (each with its own shortname). Maybe one Expat and the other Expat-Khronos to signal the license terms are very close but not identical? PS: I'm using an ancient laptop while waiting for a replacement part for my normal system, so it could be a few days before I can do an upload.
