>Description:
As part of correcting outdated license texts in the NetBSD source
tree, I have made contact with authors whose copyrights are
associated with required license texts, asking them if they are
willing to allow such licenses to have the advertising clauses
removed.
Mark Nudelman has kindly consented to allow all code in the
NetBSD source tree under his copyright to be relicensed in such a
fashion. He will be asked to send confirmation of this to the PR
and the Board, once the PR is opened.
Additionally, prior licensing statements have consistantly
transposed characters in his name; this patch remedies it in all
files that are involved.
