This document tried to gather some of those reasons (see the bottom): https://wiki.mozilla.org/License_Policy/Mozilla_Project_Licensing > * For projects below some threshold of size / importance / effort / > whatever, should we even care? A good point. I would note in this connection that when contributing to other people's projects, Mozilla has a policy of "any open source license is fine". So small patches aren't the focus here. [Also relevant, perhaps: MoFo doesn't sign copyright assignments with for-profit entities relating to _copyleft_ code written by its employees, because that creates a tilted playing field with respect to proprietary versions and we think that almost always have community-corrosive effects.] Gerv _______________________________________________ governance mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/governance
