BSD advertising clause and selling pre-installed Debian

2014-10-01 Thread Riley Baird
Hi, -legal!

If I want to sell a computer with Debian pre-installed, and I wish to
make advertisements for it, does that mean that I have to find all
copies of the BSD advertising clause with the software on the first disc
and include them in the advertisement? I know that many vendors sell -
and advertise - Debian systems, so there must be an easier way.

Thanks!

Riley Baird

Based on a naive interpretation of the clause, I would think that
removing mention of any software using that clause or features of any
software using that clause from advertising materials would be the
easiest route to compliance.
