The derived version does include the original notice,
and then:

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING AND DISTRIBUTION

The "Ada 95 HTML-Hypertext Reference Manual," hereafter referred to as
the "package", is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but
WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

The whole package (wrapped in a compressed "tarfile" or "zip file")
may be freely copied and distributed, if accompanied by this
statement, and provided that integral copies of all files are included
(i.e. no change whatsoever is allowed). You are asked to help keep the
hypertext annotations consistent, identical everywhere in the
world. If you think something needs to be modified, tell me what and
why (see my e-mail address below).

Copies of the package (as a whole) are allowed but not recommended on
other anonymous FTP sites. Copies are NOT allowed on
government-subsidized FTP/WWW sites which require registration and
accounts. This package is intended exclusively for local installation;
individual files extracted from the package may NOT be exported
outside of a site (e.g. company or university) with FTP/WWW servers
other than the Home of the Brave Ada Programmers (HBAP).

TO REPEAT: THIS PACKAGE IS INTENDED EXCLUSIVELY FOR LOCAL
INSTALLATION. IN OTHER WORDS, NO MIRROR IS ALLOWED. PERIOD. YOU MAY
ONLY DISTRIBUTE THE WHOLE PACKAGE FOR LOCAL INSTALLATION, I.E. YOU MAY
NOT PUT THIS ON ANY PUBLIC WWW SITE.

You may not sell these hypertext annotations or include and use them
in any application. If you want to do something with it, ask me for
permission first; we'll work out an agreement.

So even if one thinks that the added term and conditions are void, I
would recommand not putting it on a public web site without being
ready for potential litigation.

May be it would be better to go with Jerry's version anyway (I didn't
check the copyright and license but I guess it's ok ;-).
