[License-review] New license approvals

[Smith, McCoy]

Minutes haven’t been posted yet, and the new licenses aren’t yet up on the license list.  Soon, I hope.

BSD+Patent final text can be found in the mail list archive (as can the UPL 1.0 final text, I believe):

+1. Looking forward to reading them when posted as it wasn't clear from this list which license specifically the BSD+Patents is.
Unless I'm missing them, they haven't been posted yet.

If the person who will publish these on the website could give a heads
up on this list when that task is completed, that would be much
appreaciated!
