[libreoffice-website] Re: [libreoffice-website] Error in license page

Hi Florian, Andrea, all,

let me restate what I wrote on the marketing list - perhaps it helps to 
solve this problem:

I wrote:

I agree to your statement that "LGPL 3 (or later)" is not the license the present 
LibreOffice product is released under.

I'd replace "LGPL 3 (or later)" by "As parts
of our code have been licensed under LGPL 3, the full binaries have to be 
released under this license, even if we aim to LGPL 3 (or later) and MPL in 
future."

Best regards

Bernhard
