Actually, having read the FAQ, even if I hadn't thought that Mozilla, for me, was a dead project it certainly is now. Forcing developers to licence their own work under the GPL simply means that developers such as myself can never contribute back because of the risk of having our own future unrelated development and client development affected. Congratulations. Although I do notice that the Notice language is still as full of holes as before and developers can still legitimately remove the GPL/LGPL language for their own uses, without of course being able to contribute back. So, what is the point of the NPL/MPL licence now? It is completely unusable. Simon
