How to declare a license for a LiveCode Stacks

  I'm a bit confused about using a MIT license to release some stacks. 
Don't we also need to enforce subsequent users to be valid holders of a 
LiveCode License?

And should we add RunRev company to the closing indemnity clause?

I've done both below. Does this work?
