I wouldn't call this written permission a "commercial license", but IANAL.

Yeah, I almost called it "alternate terms", but that felt too vague. It seemed like most other packages used the words "commercial license" when you could contact the author/company to get out of open source license obligations. However, if there's some other language that better describes this, then I'll certainly modify the patch. I just don't know what those words are.

Thanks,
Frank

BSD-2c or Special Permission

Those are the words, but "or Special Permission (of the author)" is a null statement - it is always true.
