I guess it's not a major point considering BSD and MIT are so similar, but people may become confused when Wikipedia says one thing, and the official site says another.

Isn't the license page the official license statement?
If so, any other Postgres lilcensing reference should point to it.
I "update" the license page when I actually change the license policy.
