[ please discuss this license.  I assume that the submittor means to
withdraw the previous version.  -russ ]

The originally posted No Warranty License isn't being lookup upon
favorably on the discuss list so here is an updated version to
discuss. It is a BSD license with two extra sentences appended to the
disclaimer. These two sentences are copied verbatim from the MPL and Sun
Public License.

Please post this to the discuss list anonymously.

Thanks for your time.
