Hello team, I am planning to package Partio (https:partio.us) to support the incoming Open Shading Language (https://github.com/imageworks/OpenShadingLanguage) needed for Blender 3D. Could someone investigate the license http://partio.us/documentation.html#license and verify if it is both FSF and GPL compatible?
Thanks in advance.

This looks like another variant of the 3-clause BSD license: https://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-3-Clause
*takes a shot because yet another BSD license variant*
It should be fine for Fedora, since all it differs on is that the entity (Walt Disney Enterprises) is explicitly named in the license. This happens a lot with BSD licenses... :/
