Here is a wikipedia entry on the issue:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_rights_reserved
I'm not sure what sort of replacement should be offered.
Would a blank "License" field imply "no license is granted?"
I guess it would be the responsibility of someone downloading the package
to inspect it for a license.
