It only applies if you specifically mention the BSD-licensed code in your advertising material. If, for instance, Microsoft printed "Includes a command-line FTP client!" in Windows ads, they'd have to add "This product includes software developed by the University of California, Berkeley and its contributors.". But they don't, so it doesn't apply. DES -- Dag-Erling Smorgrav - des@flood.ping.uio.no To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
