Actually what you want seems unclear to me :(. If you are only interested in
the copyright notices being preserved. I can recommend the GNU All-Permissive
license. There is also the WTFPL, but I don't know exactly how to use that.

Remember that the orignal BSD License is incompatible with the GNU GPL. I
can't accept that then.

What I want is compliance to ensure that the software is free software.
