To quote wikipedia:

According to the Free Software Foundation, the MIT License is more
accurately called the X11 license, since MIT has used many licenses
for software and the license was first drafted for the X Window
System.

If enough people see value in keeping them separate, or renaming the
x11 one to mit, we might do that of course...
