Well, the way I read it one could take and use the source code for any purpose
(including developing another product or set of source code with other
conditions) as long as the Berkeley conditions are met. Those conditions seem
to cover giving UCB some credit for having done the work, and protecting UCB
from liability resulting from use of software which they had once developed.

btw, the license terms in the Postgres95 docs are slightly different, but with
the same intent. As you point out, that license seems to suit us just fine :)
