For those of us who *are* GPL types, calling the Apache licence BSD-like
is pretty confusing; the modern BSD licence is compatible with the GPL,
but the Apache licence isn't, due to the don't-use-our-name clause. (Not
wishing to start a flamewar about that, though; it's been hashed out
rather extensively elsewhere.)
