I have a question about whether the liability disclaimer in the BSD licence is "viral" i.e. does it apply to downstream software incorporating BSD licensed code? If so, doesn't that mean that including any warranties for such downstream software (e.g. proprietary) will breach the license?
My understanding is that only if those warranties are given in the name of <organisation>. The proprietary developer can give warranties, in their own name, and I think Microsoft does.
However, as I'm not a lawyer you cannot rely on this as legal advice, and the lawyers on the list will also not give you legal advice because they are not your laywers.
