Hi,

a little drive-by review, since I happened to see the patch.
In case I misunderstood something, I apologise in advance.

AFAIUI, such a change expresses a relicensing of the code, and it should
(IMHO) be made clear in the commit message that this is the case.

All authors of the code must agree to a relicensing. It would be nice
to see the list of authors in the commit message, along with a
confirmation that all agreed to relicense the code to MIT.

I think MIT+ is an editing error. It's not on the official SPDX license
identifier list, in any case.
