The attachment to this message is a draft copy of the Interbase
Public License for your review and comment. Section 6.4 (slightly
scrambled in the translation to HTML) is a list of the differences
between the Mozilla 1.1 license and the Interbase 1.0 license.

license to a dual Mozilla-GPL license. Developers of proprietary
software should accept the Mozilla license. Those who are working
in the "copylefting" part of the world can use the GPL license.
Patches must be submitted under both licenses.
Right at the moment, we've got our hands full getting the code
out under one license, so please be a bit patient.
Thanks
