As the Gentoo sys-fs/zfs maintainer, I receive license compatibility questions and at times, those questions can be harassing. I feel that the presence of the GPL in Gentoo's package metadata promotes such questions. zfs.gentoo.in is the only GPLv2 licensed file in ZFS, so I have taken the liberty of contacting all contributors to this file to request permission to relicense it. All of the contributors to this file have agreed to relicense it under the 2-clause BSD license. I have added their Signed-offs to this commit, in order of first contribution. Thank you everyone for being so understanding.

Native ZFS for Linux! ZFS is an advanced file system and volume manager which was originally developed for Solaris. It has been successfully ported to FreeBSD and now there is a functional Linux ZFS kernel port too. The port currently includes a fully functional and stable SPA, DMU, and ZVOL with a ZFS Posix Layer (ZPL) on the way!
$ ./configure
$ make pkg
