IANAL, but it seems to me that:

THIS SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED BY THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND CONTRIBUTORS "AS IS" AND
|

ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED

ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
|

(INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES;

LOSS OF USE, DATA, OR PROFITS; OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION) HOWEVER CAUSED AND
|
||||

|
||||
(INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OF THIS
|
||||
SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.
|
||||
The original code, (c) Miroslav Bendík contained a file 'LICENSE', stating that
|
||||
the code was LGPLv2.1 licensed. The original code therefore has this license.
|
||||
|
||||
The views and conclusions contained in the software and documentation are those
|
||||
of the authors and should not be interpreted as representing official policies,
|
||||
either expressed or implied, of the FreeBSD Project.
|
||||
On 23 feb 2014, Miroslav added the file 'COPYING', containing the BSD 2-clause
|
||||
license, to his source tree, without removing the LGPLv2.1+ license file.
|
||||
Presumably, this means that all his code should be considered dual-licensed.
|
||||
|
||||
ShadowNinja's contributions predate this, and are based on an earlier version
|
||||
of Miroslav's work anyway, so his contributions should necessarily be licensed
|
||||
LGPLv2.1+ as well.
|
||||
There is no indication that his contributions are licensed under any other
|
||||
license (in particular: not under the BSD 2-clause license).
|
||||
|
||||
Sfan5 made a few contributions on top of ShadowNinja's version, and on 5 mar 2014,
|
||||
added the file 'COPYING' with the BSD 2-clause license as well.
|
||||
Presumably, all his contributions can therefore be considered dual-licensed:
|
||||
LGPLv2.1+ and BSD 2-clause.
|
||||
|
||||
Rogier's contributions are licensed and (re)usable subject to any of the following
|
||||
licenses:
|
||||
- FSF GPL v2 or later
|
||||
- FSF LGPL v2.1 or later
|
||||
- BSD 2-clause
|

- BSD 3-clause
