Sigh, why actually check the facts when you can make them up.   The code 
in question is my code.  It has my copyright (modulo bits shared with 
onoe-san who was consulted on the switch from dual-bsd/gpl to bsd only 
in freebsd).  Of course what was amusing was how after I changed the 
license on the current code in freebsd certain folks retroactively 
applied the license changes to code that was 3 years old.

But is there a point to all this nonsense?  I dual-licensed the code so 
folks could adopt and use it however they saw fit.  As I've said before 
I don't care what people do with the work I give away so long as they 
don't claim it's their own.


I've yet to see "FreeBSD people" speak up so again you're just spouting 
jibberish.  I am speaking up as the author of the code that set the dual 
license in place.  I have the definitive say and I have said that any of 
my code that is dual-licensed can be made gpl only.
