The BSDL has a different background.
People who were (and who still are)working on BSDL Code were 
mostly from the academia(MIT,UCB) and since these bodies are 
public "owned", it was decided that whatever "product" comes out of 
these institutions should also remain in the public domain.

Then they should consider GPL and not BSDL, because BSDL allows
free source code to go into proprietary s/w.
