The license is so severely modified that its effect is more like GPL
than like BSDl/ISC. E.g. you must distribute source (1.b), under the
same terms as the original license. That is, if you create a derivative
work, the license is infective (just like the GPL), in my eyes. So it's
just similarly restrictive as the GPL, just in less words.

Kind regards,

Hannah.
