OK, sorry for the churn.  After you pointed out the other differences, I
re-asked legal who look a closer look (they started with my "they just
changed this one thing..") and do believe the license is GPL compatible
but it is NOT BSD-3-Clause.  So I think rather than make a one-off tag
lets just leave the full text and insert a note saying it's a slightly
different wording from normal BSD-3, and we inherit this license as-is
from Android.


comments:
(1) I suspect that the "Linux Foundation" has adopted this "license text", and I also suspect that we will likely getting more code from there; thus, while it is one-off right now, I 'm guessing that will change...
(2) so "v3" will leave the original text in place, and add the following:
 * NOTE:
 *   Although it is very similar, this license text is not identical
 *   to the "BSD-3-Clause", therefore, DO NOT MODIFY THIS LICENSE TEXT!
Is this what you would like?
 ( my preference would be to add the BSD-3L-Clause ... )
Thanks, Steve
