Re: Mozilla and Non-Copyleft Licensing

Having taken in the various viewpoints, I suggest the next step is a
concrete proposal. Here is one.

We should update the Mozilla License Policy[0]. On the particular topic
of which license to choose for a new project, it should say:

"New Mozilla-originated software projects may choose either the MPL 2.0
or the Apache License 2.0. No other license is acceptable. When
integrating with, building on or relating to an existing codebase, the
license of that codebase should be chosen. Otherwise, the licensing team
recommends MPL 2.0 for client-side code, and either for server-side
code. However, the decision should be taken on a case-by-case basis in
consultation with the licensing team."
