(see statement below).

All `old' BSD licenses (of SPICE or CIDER) have been changed to the `modified'
|

BSD license according to the following publication

see [ftp://ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/pub/4bsd/README.Impt.License.Change]):

To All Licensees, Distributors of Any Version of BSD:
|
||||
|
||||
As you know, certain of the Berkeley Software Distribution (`BSD') source code
|
||||
files require that further distributions of products containing all or
|
||||
portions of the software, acknowledge within their advertising materials
|
||||
that such products contain software developed by UC Berkeley and its contributors.
|
||||
|
||||
Specifically, the provision reads:
|
||||
|
||||
`3. All advertising materials mentioning features or use of this software must
|
||||
display the following acknowledgment: This product includes software developed
|
||||
by the University of California, Berkeley and its contributors.'
|
||||
|
||||
Effective immediately, licensees and distributors are no longer required to
|
||||
include the acknowledgment within advertising materials. Accordingly, the
|
||||
foregoing paragraph of those BSD Unix files containing it is hereby deleted
|
||||
in its entirety.
