First Debian contains BSD licensed packages so it also matters.

Second Linux kernel is GPL licensed which is copyleft license.

My observation is that BSD license could be also consdiered

copyleft in sense that it guarantees that you do not need

to pay for it . MIT licese allows you to sell it but BSD

do not allow it. It even do not allow binary form to require be paid

opposite to GPLs. The only difference is that GPL force distributor to provide

source code while BSD do not require it. From one perspective it could

be consdier worse, but I had experiece of distributing modified by me MPL

code which also has that kind of obligation and I got sick and did not

done backup, so I did not comply.

Third I cosndier debian mailing list readers interesting locutors.
