Hi,

This license is closest to MIT, but adds a custom lead-in (groan) at the beginning and a trademark restriction at the end. The authors should not refer to is as "BSD", nor "OSI-Approved" as that is a false statement.  They really ought to fix that (or just put it under the regular BSD-3-Clause or MIT!)

As for being acceptable for Fedora - I'd be curious to hear Richard's thoughts on the trademark restriction.

Thanks,
Jilayne

Hi,

Is this license [1] acceptable for Fedora and what would be the
appropriate identifier for the License field? It seems to me some sort
of BSD, and in fact the authors themselves identify it as such in the
setup.py file [2], but I'd like to be sure.
