Hi Julien,

Well - since our patches are modifications to Firebird, which requires
all modifications to have IDPL licensing, then all our modifications
cannot be under a different license?

      So - Mike is right; but I expect no problems here. We should contribute
to Firebird under their own license, respecting that. This may mean that
whomever wrote the patch / worked on it should contribute it up-stream
to Firebird, and/or give permission for that.

Hmm... I'm sorry for not being clear. My point was that since our 
patches (in our tree) were changing Firebird, they *automatically* 
follow Firebird license - or otherwise we couldn't have modified it. So 
I meant that whatever LibreOffice licensing is, the patches in Firebird 
External subdirectory are already license-compatible with upstream Firebird.
