How to incorporate MIT source code?

Hi all, Imagine I need to use some source code released under the MIT license (say an Antlr Grammar [1]) and make modifications to it, and cover these modifications with the Apache License. How am I expected to do this? I mean, a) Shall I keep the original license in a commit, so it can be

Compatibility with JDK 8: Shift work to people wanting it (was: Re: Lets talk about JDK 8 (new year edition))

Re: NetBeans is a framework was: Lets talk about JDK 8 (new year edition)

Well, These are respectable things, on the other hand the "Java 8 Forever" T-Shirt is getting more and more uncomfortable. Fortunately, NetBeans is free and open source, many versions are available, which are supporting JDK 8. If somebody would like to keep it that way, it's still possible to
