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/www/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.
cku190.tar.gz       ports/comms/kermit  Restrictive copyright
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.
