I believe that that specific image belongs to us, as in the FreeBSD
Project, so it would be under the Documentation License (which basically
means that yes, Future can use it - see
http://www.freebsd.org/copyright/freebsd-doc-license.html, which needs
updating since it doesn't talk about images at all).

However, that's not completely explicit in the commit log.
David, you added this image - are you able to shed any light, or
do we need to check with Wind River?

PS Mike, if you still have a Lisa Jones working there, tell her I  
said hello.
