samth said "I don't think the Friendly Environment policy should be thought of as part of copyright issues, or applying only to people who contribute code. Is there a different phrasing that would accomplish what you want here?" I have rephrased the reference to the Friendly Environment Policy and moved it before the License section to avoid confusion with copyright issues.
