- zabzonk 4y agofor example, some bsd licences have limitations on advertising, and other things. the mit licence is one para that basically says, maintain copyright notices and do what you want.

The 2-clause BSD license is similar in length to the MITL (which is 3 paragraphs) and substantially similar in contents as well.
