From the Web page: 'Eclipse provides flexible and fine-grained QoS support for applications. Its design allows legacy or Eclipse-unaware applications to provide QoS without the need of modification or recompilation. A simple API is provided for (new) applications to take addvantage [sic] of the fine-grained QoS support.'"

    If you'd taken the time to look at the site, you would have seen that they are distributing a *PATCH* against FreeBSD 3.4, not the entire distribution. That means that the license applies only to the code they've written, not to the BSD source.
