+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 automatically fetch
+their own original sources and complete the puzzle, the hardship is not as
+severe as it might otherwise be.
+
+Such ports are listed below:
