i was of the opinion that it's clause 4 ("all advertisements must include") rather than clause 3 ("you may not refer to ... in advertisements) that causes problems? at least according to rms' opinion, as expressed on www.gnu.org, it is ("the bsd licence has serious problems", under the philosophy section). i personally tend to agree--the 3d clause just protects the author's right to privacy, while the 4th is merely another demand for tangible recompense in the form of free advertisement. --phouchg "Reasoning is partly insane" --Rush, "Anagram (for Mongo)" PGP 5.0 key (0xE024447449) at http://cif.rochester.edu/~phouchg/pgpkey.txt
