Hi Noel, It's good idea to pick up one plugin first and discuss with the authors and relicense that plugin only. I think this also means that we'll need to change the license header of the plugin's source file to LLVM license so it's unambigous what is the license of this specific plugin. The only question is that whether it's OK to have mixed licensed files inside LO source code (some files with LLVM license, others with LO's license).
I expected that I need to adapt the code for clang, but I think it's still good to make licensing compatible even if I use only small part of the code one-on-one way.
