Hi Jason, - MPL is a file based license, covering only files released under it. Unlike GPL, it does not “spread” to other files in a project that uses MPL libraries.
- Users of MPL libraries (who do not own copyright on those libraries) must disclose their changes “only” on those MPL libraries IF they want to modify AND distribute those MPL licensed files in some form (like source code or an executable). - If you don’t modify an MPL library source you don’t have to do anything, you can use it in anything including your closed source commercial software. Many commercial software regularly use MPL licensed libraries. I think it is a great and flexible library license, it ensures fixes/improvements on the library only to be contributed back to the library. That’s why I chose it for almost all of my open source work. Regards.. On Tue, 5 Aug 2025 at 14:25 Jason E.
