So, out of curiosity, does this mean that only the slightly modified
derivatives of IPFilter found in FreeBSD
and NetBSD may be modified? Or am I reading this wrong? If not, are
you just changing the
interpretation of the license? Or are you effectively granting
permission for modification as stated in your
license?
Thanks in advance,
