It's no longer dual licenced in the FreeBSD tree because the FreeBSD people removed the GPL choice of the dual licenced code 3 months ago. So all of Theo's accusations of people breaking the law by making this dual licenced code GPL-only apply as well to the FreeBSD people... > That said, I don't see what exact wording you consider inaccurate.

According to Theo, that is "breaking the law"... > C. cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?" Ling Tan asked suddenly out of the darkness. There had been need of rain for many days.
