Besides the poor grammar in the second sentence, it's also incorrect,
because the whole point of the BSD license to some people is that it is
not "alone" under the BSD license but can be relicensed in other ways.

I think we should just scrap it and get on with our lives.  There are
about 2 questions a year about the license issues, which does not qualify
it as "FAQ" anyway.
