Redigerer BSD-lisensen

'''BSD-lisensen''' er en [[programvarelisens]] som [[UNIX]]-avarten [[Berkeley Software Distribution]] (BSD) blir distribuert under. Eierne av den originale BSD-distribusjonen var «Regents of the University of California», siden BSD opprinnelig kom fra [[University of California, Berkeley]]. 

Tilpassede versjoner av lisensen blir ofte brukt av andre organisasjoner og utviklere. Selve lisensteksten blir regnet for å være [[offentlig eiendom]] (engelsk ''public domain''), og kan derfor fritt tilpasses for eget bruk.

Arbeid basert på BSD-lisensiert programvare kan også gis ut som [[proprietær programvare]], i motsetning til lisenser som [[GPL]].
