It looks like BSD-4-Clause to me. This has it's own problems in itself. Also, note that University of California have announced (in 1999) that clause 3 is no longer required[1]. SPDX also has some information about it but it's notes are unhelpful[2]
I believe that means the second one could be BSD-3-Clause then. The first isn't BSD, it's BSD-ish. I could not find anything that matched it directly. This was the problem back then, people made up their own variations which meant some things were unclear. So to me, the simple answer is that you don't have a standard license so the short name is not a standard tag, make something that looks ok and put the entire two sets underneath. - Craig [1] ftp://ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/pub/4bsd/README.Impt.License.Change [2] http://spdx.org/licenses/BSD-4-Clause -- Craig Small VK2XLZ http://enc.com.au/ csmall at : enc.com.au Debian GNU/Linux http://www.debian.org/ csmall at : debian.org old fingerprint: 1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 NEW fingerprint: 5D2F B320 B825 D939 04D2 0519 3938 F96B DF50 FEA5 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
