Ok, I know this has been talked about before, but I have some
questions.

1- If this project is supposed to use the BSD license, why does the
sourceforge page say the MIT license?
2- Doesn't the license need to be included in the code that is being
written?
3- If it is not there, does it matter, since the BSD license says, for
the most part, do what ever you want with our code?
4- Are there any other licenses that are acceptable to be used within
the OBOS project, like the Apache license, which, looks very similar to
the BSD license, from what I've seen?

The reason I asked, is that the majority of the code that I see in the
OBOS CVS repository, does not contain a license.  Also, there are some
nice open source lbraries out in the world, that might be nice to
include in OBOS for future relases, and I want to know which would be
allowed.

Thanx,
-paul
