Email the author and see if we can use BSD-4-Clause. My guess is no. 2. We'll need to add a Netperf license to common-licenses and set LICENSE =3D "Netperf" I've checked the openSuSE Build Service and they have this as an "Other" license, so, check with the author first, but be prepared to add Netperf to the common-licenses directory. And yes, Koen is right. I wouldn't use BSD or MIT for this, specifically because of the non-commercial clause in (ii). -b > >> >> regards, >> >> Koen >> >> >> > >> > =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0Copyright (C) 1993 Hewlett-Packard Company >> > =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. >> > >> > =A0The enclosed software and documentation includes copyrighted works >> > =A0of Hewlett-Packard Co.
