It better be, it's the same license ;-) That is, Mariposa is a branch off
the Postgres95 tree. Actually, it's a good question: the PG95 license
would have let them put just about any license on Mariposa they wanted.
After running both COPYRIGHT files throught fmt, here's the diff output:
wallace$ diff COPYRIGHT COPYRIGHT.pgsql
1c1,2
< Mariposa Distributed Data Base Management System

So, it is word for word the PostgreSQL license.
