document as posted to the developers list about three months ago.
Some comments from that time have not been addressed, but will be in

If you have additional comments, please feel free to send them to me.
This recognizes that FreeBSD is increasingly being used in embedded
targets and starts to define what is expected of these embedded
targets at different tier levels, and recognizes that we may do

what license terms Coverity Prevent SQS is available under, and
how they can use the web interface of the automated analysis
runs.

bits somewhere else, since maintaining redundant information like
this isn't really constructive work.
/usr/share/examples/etc/bsd-style-copyright. There were a number of

Add text talking about non-BSD licenses in the tree, including

property, pointing at the core team as a contact for any problems.
