Open Source License Type

Post by Preethi »

Do all the open source projects have the same open source license type of 2-Clause BSD License? Based on the license file in a couple of the projects (HTTPSAPI and Base64), the license text looks similar to a 2-Clause BSD License (https://opensource.org/license/bsd-2-clause). Perhaps as a documentation enhancement, could you consider adding the open source license type name in the license file (ie “2-Clause BSD License”).
Version of HTTPAPI used is 1.45

At the time I first created this, there was no standard "2-clause BSD". I took the standard BSD license and modified it to my liking. I THINK the result is the same (or at least similar) to the one that these days people call "2-clause", but regardless, you need to follow what it says in the license.
