The package.json file suggests BSD-3-Clause, yet the LICENSE file is BSD-2.

Also, the license file does not really match the BSD-2 license text (e.g. https://github.com/pivotal/LicenseFinder/blob/master/lib/license_finder/license/templates/SimplifiedBSD.txt):

The one here has

THIS SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED BY THE AUTHOR "AS IS"

Whereas it seems like it should be

THIS SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED BY THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND CONTRIBUTORS "AS IS"

This is causing issues for us because we want license texts extracted (by LicenseFinder) and it fails for this project due to the wrong declaration in package.json and the deviating license text.

This should be resolved with v2.3.0, thanks for reporting.
