Frank,

Have you consulted [EMAIL PROTECTED] about this issue? I remember you 
asking about some license, but I can't remember if it was this one. 
Regardless, you'll need their approval before checking it in.

At a glance, the following issues seem to be a problem:

- Choice of Law (section 7). A choice of Law clause is incompatible with 
the GPL. This was the problem that Python had, I believe.

- Notification (section 3). We would need to add some text to Mozilla's 
About box, alongside the "Regents of the University of California" 
section. This is not necessarily a problem, but it's an issue that needs 
to be noted.
