Link to http://opensource.org/licenses/ISC instead of the wiki page

Fixed, thanks - I did a search for 'ISC' on http://opensource.org/licenses which came up short, hence using the other link, I guess I didn't look hard enough ;)

It only enumerates the popular licenses.

If you scroll down in the page, there's a section for All Approved Licenses, and there's a link (http://opensource.org/licenses/alphabetical) with the item "ISC License (ISC)",

BTW: why not use something more popular (like MIT)?

ISC and MIT are fundamentally the same, but ISC is smaller as it removes text that is unnecessary due to the Berne convention. I like my licenses as small and simple as possible, hence choosing ISC over MIT, but ultimately it doesn't matter.
