Change license name from "BSD Licence 3" to "BSD License 3". This typo
fails automated license checks in a project that has
hamcrest dependency.

This isn't to say that the change should be rejected. I do want to point out that "licence" with a "c" is not a typo. It is an alternative spelling for the word. "License" with and "s" is the American spelling. As this is a project primarly by people in the UK it is understandable the the non-American spelling is used in the project.

@akowal

@zaphod42 In this case it's not about spelling difference. It is a typo since correct name of the license is BSD License as per LICENSE.TXT.

@sf105

Accepted. For curiosity, what is the check that’s running?
