Hello,

the COPYING file in RTEMS is currently just the GPLv2 license text:

https://git.rtems.org/rtems/tree/COPYING

I propose to replace this with a content similar to theCOPYING.NEWLIB file in Newlib:

https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=newlib-cygwin.git;a=blob;f=COPYING.NEWLIB;h=7242a44acac981e29469441dcb40b22803bf2d2b;hb=HEAD

This file can then be used to meet this BSD-2 license requirement:

2. Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above copyright
   notice, this list of conditions and the following disclaimer in the
   documentation and/or other materials provided with the distribution.

It can be used to document which contributors agreed to the license change from RTEMS GPL to BSD-2-Clause.
