[directory-discuss] Probably wrong license for libtiff

[markus schnalke]

Hoi,

the libtiff entry mentions the license to be 2-clause BSD.
Well, the libtiff license does have two clauses but not the
ones that are usually present in 2-clause BSD licenses like
ISC or the FreeBSD license. These contain the first two
clauses, whereas the libtiff license does contain the last
clause of the original BSD license. The other clause
appears to be the merge of clause one and two. Hence the
libtiff license seems to be a modified 3-clause BSD license
(like the MIT/Expat license).

Please check if my reasoning is correct and correct the
directory entry:
