2022-02-06Add pf(4) to the "list of features we plan to remove" (eventually)nia

2019-12-04Fix some typos.wiz
2019-12-04For HEAD builds, add a small "bleeding edge" warning when we talk aboutmartin
a rock solid OS.
2019-12-03Drop entries for "Scott Bartram and Frank van der Linden" and "theuwe
University of Illinois at Urbana and their contributors". They are not referenced anywhere in the tree.
2019-12-03Add a comment to the entry for Computer Systems Laboratory at theuwe
University of Utah. It's missed by the extraction script b/c of the non-standard formatting of the ad clause.
2019-12-03Move the entry for Caldera to its proper place in the sorting order.uwe
2019-12-03Use troff \(xx names for the few accented characters we have here.uwe
Extraction script outputs them literally, but some of them are in utf-8 and some in latin1. While here also use \(:o for Bodo Moeller name as instructed. Lule\(oa is now emited by the extraction script directly. This gives us the right characters in PostScript and HTML output. In text output they are transliterated with -mtty-char.
2019-12-03Translate Lule} to troff's Lule\(oa.uwe

2019-12-03Detect more ad clauses, pick more duplicates.uwe
If there are notices that differ in the final dot, prefer the version with the dot. Sort "by the" enries after all other "by Name" entries. With the corresponding re-ordering of the legal.common the output of this script is getting useful again.
2019-12-03Sort entries "by Foo." before "by Foo and" etc. Sort the section withuwe
"for the NetBSD" notices that had a lot of entries out of order. Drop final dots that are not in any of the required notices to reduce diff with the script output.
2019-12-03Move entries with short first line that ends with "by" to their properuwe
places in the sorting order.
2019-12-02Restore entries for "K. Kobayashi" and "K. Kobayashi and H. Shimokawa".uwe
The script missed them as it was confused by the slighly non-standard license wording. My apologies.

my apologies.

2019-12-02Drop the entry for Thomas Gerner.uwe
thomas@ dropped clauses 3 and 4 from his license back in 2009 and the entry was dropped from here, but a copy was forgotten in the atari port-specific legal file and merged back here in 2015.
