The BSD 0-clause license goes further than the 2-clause license by dropping the requirements to include the copyright notice, license text or disclaimer in either source or binary forms, which forms a public-domain-equivalent license in the same way as the MIT No Attribution License. It is known as 0BSD, Zero-Clause BSD or Free Public License 1.0.0. Despite its name, it was actually derived from the ISC license rather than from a previous member of the BSD license family. It was created by Rob Landley and first used in Toybox, when he was disappointed after using the GNU General Public License in BusyBox. This entry is described from the section on it in the article on the BSD licenses, which has no article of its own.
