Yes, I will. Thanks for help! Will update update it when closing
downstream - this might take a while, I'm batching some other fixes
before releasing a new fedora package. I'll make a note here when I'm
done.

Once again, thanks for good response!

Title:
  [6.1] Incompatible MPL license in wiki module

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Fix Released
Status in “openerp” package in Fedora:
  New

Bug description:
  In the wiki module, the  files web/controllers/wiki.py and
  web/widgets/wiki.py are distributed under MPL (Mozilla Public License)
  conditions. Other files in the same module are distributed under GPLv3
  + and BSD.

  Legally, this doesnt work IMHO - MPL is not compatible with GPL, so
  the only way to distribute the module would be to split it into two
  independent parts, one with the MPL files and one with the others. To
  me, this doesn't make sense.

  OTOH, both of the MPL files seems to be copyrighted by openerp (i. e.,
  Tiny ERP) so if we just got a message here saying that openerp intends
  to relicense these files under the same GPLv3+ conditions as other
  parts of the product, there is no problem.

  So: Does openerp intend to relicense web/controllers/wiki.py and
  web/widgets/wiki.py under GPLv3+?
