I don't know quite what you mean? MINIX isn't free, which is pretty big for a student project. In fact people may have started a similar project(not big like GNU) to due to its price.

It's equivalent to 3-clause BSD.

My comment as may be noted was more a commentary on the historical licensing of MINIX which lead to Linux, see the original post.

It's reasonable to say it wasn't free, but MINIX 3 is FOSS now.

The same argument could be made to claim "Linux isn't free" given its very first license.
