That's the scary part. Look at the license on code created by Jordan, etc.
carefully; it bears the name of the employee, not Walnut Creek's name. Since 
Walnut Creek owns work done by its employees on company time, a license which says 
that the work is copyrighted by the employee and then released under the BSD license 
isn't valid. It has to say that WALNUT CREEK owns the code and is licensing it.
