Licensing Fun

Dave Hyatt:

I find it really strange that Mozilla’s tri-license has created this situation. On the one hand, it encourages people to build applications using Mozilla code under the GPL, LGPL, or MPL, but at the same time it makes it impossible for anyone to really give the code back to Mozilla itself if that code doesn’t use the MPL.
