[20090417] Googling for the NetBSD advertizing clause finds ... products based on NetBSD!
NetBSD used to publish code under a license that asks people to mention that they use NetBSD code if they do so. Now searching for the corresponding license string on Google scores about 20.000 hits, and there a number of hits in that that lead to products which use NetBSD that I haven't seen before yet:
  • Codian IP VCR 2200 Series: ``The IP VCR 2200 series of IP Video Conference Recorders allow you to record video and slides from standard video conferencing equipment. The content can be streamed live or played back on demand at multiple speeds to a PC or any video conferencing endpoint. '' [license notice]

  • Adobe / Macromedia Fireworks MX 2004: ``Rapidly prototype websites and application interfaces with Adobe® Fireworks® CS4 software. Create and optimize images for the web more quickly and accurately than ever before with an enhanced toolset.'' [license notice]

  • Thecus NAS: ``A look under the hood shows that the N8800 means business. Equipped with eight 3.5" SATA hard disk bays, the N8800 offers massive storage capacity in a 2U rack mount form factor. This combination brings a powerful yet cost-effective network attached storage solution that is perfect for medium-to-large organizations.'' - this one is probably thanks to Wasabi Systems [PDF with license notice]

  • MyProxy: ``MyProxy is open source software for managing X.509 Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) security credentials (certificates and private keys). MyProxy combines an online credential repository with an online certificate authority to allow users to securely obtain credentials when and where needed.'' [license notice]

  • AudioCodes has several products:
    • MediaPack 20x: ``The MP-20x series of Analog Telephone Adapters are cost-effective, advanced products, which allow the connection of ordinary analog telephones or fax machines to a Voice over Broadband (VoBB) service.''

    • Tulip AC494 ATA: ``The Tulip AC494 ATA is a complete, ready-to-use reference design of an Analog Telephone Adapter (ATA) with data routing capabilities. Utilizing AudioCodes field-proven DSP VoIP software and the integrated AC494 System on Chip (SoC), the Tulip AC494 ATA offers OEMs and ODMs an excellent and cost-effective solution for the rapidly growing residential and Small Office / Home Office (SOHO) VoIP market.''

    • Mediant 1000 MSBG: ``The Mediant 1000 MSBG is an all-in-one multi-service access solution for Service Providers offering managed services and distributed Enterprises. This multi-service business gateway is designed to provide converged Voice & Data services for business customers at wire speed, while maintaining SLA parameters for superior voice quality. The Mediant 1000 MSBG is based on AudioCodes? VoIPerfect best-of-breed Media Gateway technology, combined with Enterprise class Session Border Controller, Data & Voice security elements, Data Routing, LAN Switching and WAN Access.''

    See also AudioCodec's license notice.

  • PTP Spider (PRO and zero): ``The SPIDER is a DVR which can record and index a week's worth of broadcasts of up to 8 T.V. channels. The SPIDER is the fast, easy, and cost-effective way to monitor what is being said on television about your organization, products, services, and competitors. '' [Brochure and page with license notice]

  • Fujitsu Apache Web server on BS2000/OSD: ``APACHE Web server is a porting of the APACHE Software Foundation?s APACHE httpd 2.2.8 World Wide Web server and also contains security-related patches.'' [Data sheet with license notice]

    (Side note: Siemens' BS2000 is among the dinosaurs of mainframe operating systems on this planet... seeing NetBSD being used to get modern Open Source software like Apache migrated to such a beast makes me feel funny :-)

  • StereoStream: ``StereoStream streams music from your iTunes library on your Mac over WiFi to your iPhone or iPod Touch. '' [license notice]

    This goes in a long list of software that apparently was made to work on Apple's iPhone and iPod Touch... which are known to make heavy use of NetBSD inside. This goes in the same tradition as there are numerous games for Sony's Playstation which all use NetBSD code.

  • F5 BIG-IP product family: ``BIG-IP product modules let you easily incorporate new functionality -- everything from Web acceleration to topology-based load balancing -- so you can quickly adapt to changing application and business challenges.'' [Features guide with license notice. See also this file from a product reselled by Dell :-]

  • Intel® Blade Server Ethernet Switch Modules SBCEGBESW1 and SBCEGBESW10: ``6 x Ethernet 10Base-T, Ethernet 100Base-TX, Ethernet 1000Base-T, 1 Gbps - dramatically reduces cabling resulting in easier access and service. The modularity of the solution provides plenty of bandwidth and flexibility. '' [See the license notice in the CLI Guide]

So much for now. If you find any notices about NetBSD being used in products - maybe in your new toy's manual - drop me a line.

[20050303] Adobe releases source code under MIT license
While not directly NetBSD related, and not directly thrilling, the long term result of this may be interesting: Adobe has released two GUI libraries under a MIT-style license. While all the world (still?) thinks that the GPL is the best thing since sliced bread, they slowly seem to start realizing that there are alternatives, and that the GPL may not be that good for commercial exploitation as thought first. Last but not least, the MIT-license is about the same as the license from BSD and NetBSD.
