Hi Tim,

I have no problem with changing the License to BSD 3-clause but it seems that bash-completion is GPLv2 

https://github.com/scop/bash-completion/blob/master/COPYING

If we contribute the script to them, it will probably be on any distribution.
For that reason, I think that it is wiser to release it as GPLv2.

The script itself is mostly my code, but I did some copy paste from other scripts such as the function in_array.

Best regards,
Daniel
