Some of the ports in this directory have restrictive copyrights prohibiting
their actual redistribution on mass media.  When creating compilations
of FreeBSD on such mass media, you should be sure and NOT distribute
the original source tarballs for such ports in your distfiles directory.
To do so will invite needless problems from the various parties involved.

Since those connected to the net will also be able to use the ports framework
to automatically fetch their own original sources and thus complete the puzzle,
the hardship is not as severe as it might otherwise be.

Such ports are listed below:

Dist			Port			Why
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
timidity-*		ports/audio/timidity	Uses copyrighted patches.
JDK-*			ports/lang/jdk		Put copyright on packaging!
Scilab-*		ports/math/Scilab	Don't sell for profit.
aswedit-*		ports/editors/aswedit	Commercial software.
bzip-*			ports/archivers/bzip	Some algorithms used may
						infringe certain US patents.
						Opinions differ. Commercial 
						use could render you liable 
						to unfriendly legal action.
camediaplay-*		ports/graphics/camediaplay No redistribution due to
						beta status
cap60/*			ports/net/cap		Don't sell for profit
cku190.tar.gz		ports/comms/kermit	Restrictive copyright
contool-*		ports/sysutils/contool	Don't incorporate the source
						code into a product which is
						subsequently sold.

						environment.
dgd/1.0.*		ports/net/dgd		ditto
dgd/2.4.5-for-1.0.37.tgz ports/net/dgd-lpmud	No monetary gain. No point in
						distributing a package, since
						it depends on dgd, which has
						restrictions on distribution.
						Source tarball may go on CDROM.
dgd/net-*		ports/net/dgd-net	Same as dgd
dnews			ports/news/dnews	Same as dnews3.
dnews3			ports/news/dnews	Only free for schools and

						register as well. 4 weeks of
						free trial for everybody.
						We currently ask for permission
						to put a package on the CD-ROM.

						distributed ROMs.
