Lerna was released with an MIT license as was Rush.

So, nothing was stolen and if the story is true, the only infraction here would be that the Lerna copyright line was not included in the Rush license.

Which is one of the very few things they are required to do. Following the clauses in the MIT license is not really rocket surgery.

That's exactly what I said - that was the only infraction.

What part of my comment are you disagreeing with??

Copyright infringement is not theft.

>>hunger+Gc
Simple. Distributing MIT-licensed code without the original license disclosure is theft.

>>eeks+Ce
But both included the MIT license

The copyright notice is what must be included. The license states this very clearly.

The "above copyright notice" must be included; i.e. the general MIT license itself, without credit to any author. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIT_License

The original BSD license did have a credit clause which led to considerable trouble and controversy, so they don't do that any more. IANAL, and this is extremely bad manners on someone's part, but no laws were broken.
