> This question was never really answered on the list, so I'm resubmitting it via JIRA to fit the apparent workflow a little better.
> The category-a list [1] currently includes:
> "BSD (without advertising clause)."
> It links to the 2-clause BSD [2].
> My understanding is that the 4-clause BSD ("original BSD") [3] is the
> one that is not permitted.
> But nothing is said about the newer 3-clause BSD ("simplified BSD")  [4]
> I propose that the "simplified BSD" should be added to the category-a list.
