Hi All,

I'm working on some patches/features for NSD. One of the new features
uses some Apache 2.0 licensed code (for now).

Sorry to ask this question, but just to verify:

* FreeBSD-base cannot include any software licensed under Apache 2.0
unless approved by the core team.
* Software in the ports collection is allowed to be licensed under
Apache 2.0.


If my assumptions are correct, and since NSD is not in base, the
dependency on the Apache 2.0 licensed code is therefore technically
allowed right?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Jeroen
