Mapstraction - Feb 2008 - mapstraction license

Hi,
I read this post

http://lists.mapstraction.com/htdig.cgi/mapstraction-mapstraction.com/2008-January/000025.html

which indicates that maspstraction is intended to have a BSD-style license.
Also the headers of the source indicate liberal use, however I think in
order to have greater adoption, the mapstraction library should use one of
the standard licenses like BSD, MIT, Apache, LGPL etc. and perhaps have a
license link on the main project site.

Many organizations do not deal with one-off licenses and a standard license
would definitely help.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Sanjiv

nevermind.. mapstraction is using the BSD license template itself. The
mention of BSD-style license threw me off.

I still think it would be a good idea for the main page had a link to the
license (unless I overlooked this too).
