This, twice.

Keep in mind, also, that SPDX lists a half-dozen BSD-3-Clause variants. Do not 
use them at all. If you must use a BSD-3-Clause (because upstream, or 
whatever), use only this one https://spdx.org/licenses/BSD-3-Clause.html .

Prefer https://spdx.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause.html in all cases where a simple 
permissive license with no patent language is desired.
