+Box Backup, http://www.boxbackup.org/
+
+Copyright (c) 2003-2010, Ben Summers and contributors.
+All rights reserved.
+
+The license of the code was changed on 23-Jan-2010 in order to meet the
+Fedora Project's definition of Free Software, and therefore allow inclusion
+in Fedora, Red Hat Linux and CentOS. This also solves a long-standing
+incompatibility with the GNU Readline library that prevented us from
+distributing Box Backup binaries compiled against that library. You can
+review our discussions of the change in the mailing list archives at:
+http://lists.boxbackup.org/pipermail/boxbackup/2010-January/000005.html
+
+Note that this project uses mixed licensing. Different parts of the project
+may be used and distributed under different licenses, as described below.
+The two licenses used are "Box Backup GPL" and a BSD-style license.
+
+For full details of the license, please read the included COPYING.txt file.
+
+Unless stated otherwise in the file, all files in the following directories
+fall under the "Box Backup GPL" license, described below:
