Aren't we all lazy?
And the first time we sat down to write our first Boost library,
didn't we read http://www.boost.org/more/lib_guide.htm and wonder
which license we should, perhaps, use?
Doesn't it seem like maybe it might be a good idea to provide an
example of a license that complies with the guidelines, to cater to
the intrinsic laziness of programmers?

Perhaps this license might be a suitable example license; it was dug
out of the iterator_adapters.hpp file and provided more or less
verbatim:
