Does the reference to the license not count as a license, much as a pointer in C refers you to the "actual data"?

- niggler 14y agoA reference to a license is acceptable if and only if the license being referenced recognizes them. Some licenses (like GPL) do recognize certain types of references while others (like MIT) do not. If you want a C analogy, saying "LICENSE: GPL" or "LICENSE: MIT" is like dealing with a void *.
