 <p>We actively intend for clang (and LLVM as a whole) to be used for
 commercial projects, not only as a stand-alone compiler but also as a library
-embedded inside a proprietary application.  The BSD license is the simplest way
-to allow this.  We feel that the license encourages contributors to pick up the
-source and work with it, and believe that those individuals and organizations
-will contribute back their work if they do not want to have to maintain a fork
-forever (which is time consuming and expensive when merges are involved).
-Further, nobody makes money on compilers these days, but many people need them
-to get bigger goals accomplished: it makes sense for everyone to work
