Can anyone (or almost anyone) >get a BSD license for source code? I thought it was much more restrictive. Yes, anyone can get a BSD license for very little cash. The problem is that you must have an AT&T license (for something like version 7 or so) to get the full BSD distribution. If you just want the BSD code (i.e. the stuff that has no AT&T stuff in it) you can get that for free from archive sites like uunet. -- Conor P.
