Why change this? It will always be wrong for some subset of readers, since in British the noun is
licence but in American it's license (and contrariwise for the verb -- can't speak for
other flavours of English!). Unless there were a consensus to use one chosen form of English
consistently (which there isn't, not least because many of the contributors are non-native
speakers and write their own individual variant of the language!), I'd just leave such
dichotomous spellings as made by the original contributor.
Cheers!
Mike
