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
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JDK-*           ports/lang/jdk      Put copyright on packaging!
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.
crack-5.0       ports/security/crack    Crypto; export-controlled
dgd/dgd-1.0.37.tar.gz   ports/net/dgd       License required for commercial
                        use as a server, and even for
                        distribution of sources and/or
                        binaries into a corporate
                        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
                        universities, but they have to
                        register as well. 4 weeks of
                        free trial for everybody.
                        We currently ask for permission
                        to put a package on the CD-ROM.
