That's correct. This uses a 2-clause BSD license, but the Intellectual Property Policy section in the Project Charter (http://dpdk.org/about/charter#ip) specifies 3-clause BSD. If you really need to use a new license, then you'll need to make a request to the Governing Board as specified in clause 6.c in the charter. > > 18/05/2017 12:21, Ashwin Sekhar T K: > > +/* > > + * https://github.com/halayli/lthread which carries the following > license. > > + * > > + * Copyright (C) 2012, Hasan Alayli <hala...@gmail.com> > > + * > > + * Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without > > + * modification, are permitted provided that the following conditions > > + * are met: > > + * 1.
