Hi,
My name is Sergio Belkin I maintain UpTools package. That package has
a License that has 4 clauses and because of that I get confused and
labeld as "BSD with advertising". But a closer read of "BSD with
advertising" at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing/FAQ#What.27s_the_deal_with_the_B...
makes to understand that is the License that we are using is not "BSD
with advertising". Anyway I wonder if even that has 4 clauses it's a
"BSD" license. I've found that cyrus-sasl has the same license and its
license it was as "BSD" but maintainer changed the tag License, surely
because of a bug I reported.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=679416
But again, seeing more deeply it doesn't seem "BSD with advertising".
In short: Please could you tell me if the following License can be
tagged as "BSD" i.e. BSD License (no advertising)
