Ask HN: Is MPL a good license for libraries?

2 pointsby generichumanover 3 years ago
It seems better for commercial usage compared to the GPL since it isn&#x27;t as strict while also guaranteeing the users of the MPL licensed library will share their changes. I&#x27;m curious what HN users think of it as a library license.<p>To people who might suggest LGPL: it is a no-go if you&#x27;re using a language that&#x27;s statically linked (Go &#x2F; Rust) or a dynamic language.<p>(Info about MPL: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.mozilla.org&#x2F;en-US&#x2F;MPL&#x2F;2.0&#x2F;FAQ&#x2F;)<p>Additional question, do companies have policies that ban MPL?
