Is there a precedent for the phrase "Standard Improved BSD License" for the three-clause BSD?
It seems to be a puckettism that propagated throughout the pd world, including my references to «SIBSD» some years ago.
If not, this needs to be changed to "3-clause BSD License" since there are at least three different licenses BSD could refer to (and 2 of them could be standard and improved...)
gnu.org has different terminology : http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/bsd.html
but it seems to be dating back to when Stallman invented the 3-clause BSD (1996-1999).
I know nothing about the history of the 2-clause BSD... I didn't pay attention to its appearance.
