BSD 3-clause vs. BSD 2-clause license

[Christian K.]

Dear Hamcrest project owners,

there is an inconsistency in the licensing information provided with the project. The Google Code homepage [1] links to a BSD 2-clause license [2] but the code [3] actually specifies a BSD 3-clause license.

Best regards,

Christian

Thanks for pointing this out. It seems to be a bug on Google Code. Hamcrest is indeed the BSD 3-clause license (a.k.a. the 'New BSD license', even though it's not the newest). But Google Code links to the wrong license.

I've added a vote to http://code.google.com/p/support/issues/detail?id=5543. I'm not sure how many votes it will take to get it noticed.
