It is an Apache license, which is beasically the same, only in more words, according to:

If you need to be very very sure, ask your company lawyer.

According to this:

It is pickier when you are doing changes to the code.

Hi Pritaeas, it has an MIT license? Because I have read licence agreement from refuel link that you provided, but there is nothing about MIT licence. And I want to know whether it has an MIT license or not.
