I agree with Peter here.  There is no need to justify the license schema
with PostgreSQL.  However, I think people need to be clear (via FAQ,
Readme, anything with a URL that we can point to people) so that when
this question comes up, we simply direct them there and say, basically,
"its a non-discusionable"
