The FreeBSD documentation set consists of many documents.  The majority of
these is available under the same license that you can view by following
the "Copyright" link near the top of the Handbook's first page.  There are
however parts of the FreeBSD documentation set that are works or parts of
works copyrighted by their respective authors.  Those documents have their
own copyright notices near their beginning.  For an example of a non-BSD
licensed document, see http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en/books/design-44bsd/
(which is "Copyright (C) 1996 by Addison-Wesley Longman, Inc").
