205	Remove BSD4 from Cabal.Distribution.License.License	igloo		"I doubt any Haskell software actually uses the BSD4 license, and it is likely to confuse users as it looks like a newer version of BSD3.

Currently we have
{{{
data License = ... | BSD3 | BSD4
}}}
so I propose moving to one of
{{{
data License = ... | BSD3
data License = ... | BSD
data License = ... | BSD3   | OldBSD
data License = ... | BSD    | OldBSD
data License = ... | NewBSD | OldBSD
}}}
(http://www.opensource.org/licenses/alphabetical lists it as ""New BSD license"")

All but the first will require changing a number of packages. We could leave the old BSD3 name as deprecated for a while, though.
