[LDM #JBM-625382]: LDM license?

Jeff,

The redistribution and usage rights are stated in the paragraph that's before 
the numbered conditions:

"Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without 
modification,
are permitted provided that the following conditions are met:"

In other words, you can do whatever you want providing you meet the numbered 
conditions.

This license is the standard "3-clause BSD license" with the addition of an 
anti-software-patent clause.
