Всем лицензиатам и дистрибьюторам любых версий BSD:

Как вы знаете, некоторые файлы исходных текстов Berkeley Software Distribution ("BSD") требуют, чтобы дальнейшее распространение продуктов, содержащих полный код программного обеспечения, производилось вместе с материалом, указывающим на то, что эти продукты содержат программное обеспечение, разработанное Калифорнийским Университетом в Беркли и его контрибьюторами.

В условии сказано буквально следующее:

....
"     * 3. All advertising materials mentioning features or use of this software
      *           must display the following acknowledgement:
