2) The BSD license. Contrary to popular belief, it has brought a lot of
high quality development to FreeBSD.

The salient point is that BSD license (and alike licenses)seem to bring in 
more talented people than GPL. Postgres vs. MySQL, BSD's vs. Loonix, 
Postfix, Apache etc... It's funny that talented people are pleased to see 
their code freely distributed, where mediocritys try their best to put it 
under viral licensing.
