Hi Jim,
you probably remember my constant nagging abou the licensing of your
library code. Inside the bug report in Debian BTS[1] you mentioned MPL
yourself. Since I did not received any definitive answer stronger than
"looking at Mozilla Public LIcense, ... I can release it under
that as well."
I was searching the web for potential new releases of the code. I found
something at Github which has only four files left with a non-free
license and I mentioned this in the according bug report there[2]. From
what I can see when inspecting the whole directory it looks pretty much
like an unwanted leftover since all other files have later copyright and
a free license.
It would be really great if you could clarify this.
Thanks a lot for your cooperation
Andreas.
