| 1 | Gentoo/FreeBSD is currently using the BSD license, but it seems that |
| 2 | this is not the license used by the BSD project: |

| 4 | http://www.freebsd.org/copyright/freebsd-license.html |
| 5 | |
| 6 | In particular, the FreeBSD license removes the third clause and appends |
| 7 | "The views and conclusions contained in the software and documentation |
| 8 | are those of the authors and should not be interpreted as representing |
| 9 | official policies, either expressed or implied, of the FreeBSD Project." |
| 10 | |
| 11 | For comparison, here is a link to the BSD license in portage: |

| 15 | Does anyone have any objections to committing the FreeBSD license to |
| 16 | portage? |
