Please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't "(C) - All rights reserved"
something entirely different from the BSD License under which FreeBSD
is licensed? This license grants it's users some rights very
explicitely. I know that I can still be a Copyright owner when I
choose to distribute a piece of work under a different license, but
can I say that all rights are reserved when I actually do something
else?
