Datatables MIT License

I googled if datatables had a MIT License and I found this link http://datatables.net/license_mit.

However at all of the other places on this website it is stated that datatables is just dual licensed under GPL v2 and BSD(3 point). Can you please clarify if datatables is licensed under MIT as well?

The legal team at the place where I work forbids using third party libraries under BSD 3point. So I was super excited to find that link(http://datatables.net/license_mit) but again I am still not sure if that is a stale page.

Thanks,
Anirudh

    DataTables 1.10 will be released under the MIT license (only) which is where the link stems from.

    1.10 is more or less feature complete now and available under the 1_10_wip branch on github (a couple of small errors to be fixed yet) - but there is no real documentation for it yet, which is what I'm working on at the moment.

    Thanks. Grouping feature currently is provided by the add-on http://jquery-datatables-row-grouping.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/index.html.

    It is licensed under BSD and GPL too. Will it be released under MIT as well?

    Is there any way by which someone can get datatables 1.9.4 with grouping add-on under MIT license?

    The grouping plug-in isn't my software and isn't part of the DataTables core project. You'd need to contact the author of the plug-in.
