I don't see the signifcant of GPL everything. Only advantage is people
can link mozilla to GPL program, but MPL will still be what mozilla is
distributed as, with GPL as alternative license. Since GPL will
essentually prevent third-party proprietary plugins.
I like MPL, don't know if you agree or not, but I think its more liberal
than GPL by far. Heck even NPL is ok with me, if I recall correctly NPL
is essentually MPL repackaged to allow Netscape within the two year
period of release not bound to NPL.
While you poking around the license of individual files, do you want to
also checkout how many files Netscape contributed to?
