I'm working on making the Chromium (www.chromium.org) pass licensecheck,
and here's my third patch (the first one was
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=641497).

The patch makes the script recognize Microsoft Permissive License (Ms-PL).

Note that according to FSF this is a free software license,
just incompatible with GPL: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#ms-pl

It's also OSI-approved: http://www.opensource.org/licenses/alphabetical

The Chromium tracking bug for this is
