Ummm, the overall project licence is **not** MPL.  The Jury (read project 
Admins) is still out on what licence to use for new code.  It is not likely 
to be MPL.  It's likely to end up being IDPL (Initial Developer's Public 
License).  Reason for eschewing MPL is the control Mozilla/Netscape has 
over the licence.

The IDPL is distributed with Firebird 1.5 - see the Firebird root 
directory.  It is, like the IPL, a MPL derivative.
