BSD License

One of the worlds most important open source licenses, originally developed for BSD Unix. It is very liberal: Basically it allows you to redistribute both sources and binaries, as you want. Unlike the GPL you may even sell derivated works. See also http://www.opensource.org/licenses/bsd-license.php.
