Well, I can't understand clearly.
As my known LibO is under LGPLv3, that means it applys to all of
source except some extra extension things. But according to your
saying.. " previously existing code" of core is under LGPLv3 and new
code of core which is committed to LibO is under LGPLv3+MPL? Wait a
sec. now new code became a part of "existing code", then? which
license applys to that?

I'm really sorry, but what are "previously existing code" and "new
code"? I don't get it at all because there's no boundary something
like that. Well at one certain time, we can say, these are "existing
code" and those are not, not yet, they are still new. However later
those new ones became "old or existing" one. So they are not new
anymore.

would you explain this a little bit more?
