Please have a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:PostgreSQL#License.3F

This guy is insisting that PostgreSQL is NOT released under the BSD licence, a directly contradiction of the PostgreSQL page on licensing: http://www.postgresql.org/about/licence

(At this point, I've noticed that the URL uses our UK spelling of "licence" but the page itself contains the US English version "license")

Could someone clarify, is this guy indeed correct and the licence page needs updating stating it's something similar to an MIT licence, or is he just plain wrong?  As it stands, the Wikipedia page on PostgreSQL says "similar to the MIT License".

Thanks

Thom
