* plus point of MPL is you don't get confusion between GPL and LGPL.
- When FPC was started in 1993 there were basically two licenses: BSD and (L)GPL so the choice was easy.
Many just see GPL and stay away...
Don't make the common fault about OSS. Not users are important but developers. And (L)GPL is much more developer friendly. Further, most big OSS projects I know being completly "hobbyist" driven are (L)GPL. The big projects using something else have either academic or commercial roots or are too new so they use their own license.
