Re: Licensing for IceCat

[Giuseppe Scrivano]

Hello,

even if we can redistribute IceCat under GPL license terms, we decided
to keep the original tri-license Mozilla Firefox license, in this way
if Mozilla people will consider our efforts useful they can use them
without any problem.  The package should keep this same license too.
