Another uncommon license: "Don't Bother Dan" license

Just another funny "license" ("clause" actually):
Licensing

Safecat is issued under the BSD license. Some of the source code for safecat was borrowed from Dan Bernstein, who has not specified what license applies to his code. From his public remarks, I am confident that he doesn't care what is done with his code, as long as:

Nobody thinks that Dan is responsible for your project,
Nobody thinks that Dan endorses your use of his code, and
Nobody bothers Dan about problems with your project, including code borrowed from him.
The BSD license, together with the DBD (``Don't Bother Dan'') clause, is included in the safecat distribution. You can also read it here.
