Google Code blacklists Mozilla Public License
Posted by freesoftnews on Jul 31, 2008 in Google, Mozilla • No commentsThe Mozilla Public License (MPL) is the latest casualty of Google’s decision to remove open-source licenses from its popular code hosting service.
The search giant has said Google Code is no longer accepting projects licensed under MPL, although existing MPL-licensed code is allowed to stay.
The move comes two years after Google Code launched, when MPL was one of just seven licenses Google allowed developers to use. Others included Apache, BSD and the Free Software Foundation’s GPL and LGPL.
