Eric,
I'm no lawyer, hate that slimy feeling. But from reading the license documentation that is available, your right it is free PROVIDED you maintain the copyright notice and liability waivers to anyone you provide the software to.

Dear Sir
I am a developer of one commercial organization. We are going to develop some applications with PostgreSQL 7.3.3. I learn from some websites that it cost no charge for developing software with PostgreSQL in commercial environment. However, I saw the PostgreSQL is under two type of licenses, namely, <http://www.fsf.org/licenses/info/X11.html> X11-style license and BSD license for the following websites,
http://www.postgresql.org/licence.html
http://www.gnu.org/directory/database/servers/postgresql.html
Please kindly provide professional comment on this issue and suggest whether the use of PostgreSQL for commercial purpose is no license charge or not
Thanks & Best Regards,
