You're right, the wording differed from the sample text, so I used different 
names, but the differences are not enough to change the license.

I can change the Easing to use the BSD-3-clause short name, but I'm not sure 
what to do about the Khronos. The copyright file already has an "Expat" entry 
and according to Policy section 12.5. A "verbatim copy of its copyright and 
distribution license" must be included. An email in debian-legal [1] clarifies 
that really there should be no changes other than minor punctuation or 
whitespace variations. The standard Expat uses the word "Software" and the 
Khronos uses "Materials".

If I need a verbatim copy of both licenses, don't I need to rename one of them? 
If I merge them, which text do I keep?
