[PATCH 0/1] less LICENSE correction

[Beth Flanagan]

Mark Nudelman has given us permission to use a generic BSD license for less.
Switching this to BSD-2-Clause as it's the most appropriate.

The following changes since commit 45987c5135d22757ed2eb06b37e192d73309f59f:

  eglibc: Fixes for running regression tests (2011-12-19 09:29:18 +0000)

are available in the git repository at:
  git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky-contrib eflanagan/less

[PATCH 1/1] less: Correcting generic license

[Beth Flanagan]

I've asked and received permission from Mark Nudelman, the author
of less, to utilize a generic BSD 2 clause license for less, instead
of creating a common "less" license file.
