hi everyone, I am a new firefox extension developer and just start build my first firefox extension, I recently develop something that make firefox act more like google browser. So all my code done, but before I submit I decide to have a check on copy right problem, that worry me. My addon is actually base on two current work. First, I actually copy and modified some XBL code from firefox tabbrowser.xml. Secondly, my addon depends on another addon - ChrominFrame by Zero Fire (https:// addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/10091). I go through the document, and find that firefox with tri-licence and ChrominFrame is MPL. I wonder what so I do explicitly in order to obey the licence (for example, what comment should I include in my code), and since my work do not include code frame ChrominFrame but instead change it by XBL, should I also attach MPL header to my work, with original developer as Zero Fire. Sorry I am really new in Open Source Contribution, my English is really bad and I get headache when facing legal problem. I mean no offense to any rule, I just wanna to contribute to Firefox I love. So could anyone give me some advice on it? Thank you very much
