[Fasterfox] License?

[Tony Gentilcore]

Mark,

Thanks again for pointing this out to me.  Version 0.7.5 is now under the
MPL 1.1.  

Please let me know if you notice other things like this in the future.

Tony

Hi Mark,

You are absolutely right, and I appreciate you pointing this
out in a nice way.  As you have probably deduced, I'm
definitely a programmer not a lawyer.  I certainly didn't
mean any offense with my own little license there.  Quite
frankly, I didn't expect that this extension would get so
much attention.

Please give me about a week or so to understand the MPL and
the other OSI licenses that are out there and to get a new
version out with a new license.

Again, sorry, and thanks for your patience with someone so
new to open source,
Tony
