It's mentioned on the picobsd page. 2. There is/was a BSD promotion image (I believe FreeBSD) of the daemon on their page (which may be required by the BSD license). 3. It's closed source, which would violate the GPL, but not the BSD type of license. (The original post asked for linux firewalls. I don't care what platform you run your firewall on, just pointing out a slight difference and adding information for an attempt at accuracy. Please correct me if I'm wrong.)
