This has been puzzling be for some time. So I'm asking. Why isn't it represented in Mk/bsdlicenses.db.mk along with all the other BSD/MIT licenses? Is there something in it that doesn't agree with the Foundations policies? I've read the License Guide[1]. It's listed as OSI approved[2] and it has an SPDX-License-Identifier[3]. Is this an appropriate place to ask this question? Or is this something I need to direct to core@ ? Thanks for any insight on this. 1. https://docs.freebsd.org/en/articles/license-guide/ 2. https://opensource.org/license/bsd-1-clause 3. https://spdx.org/licenses/BSD-1-Clause.html -- --Chris Hutchinson
