The MMPLv1 has a few nasty holes (one of them being very nasty and arguably making the license invalid to begin with) and is incompatible with a lot of other FOSS licenses due to at least the \"legal copy of Minecraft\" clause.\r\n\r\nSince one of our primary contributors' request was to choose a \"copyleft license with minimum lawyerspeak\", excluding the MIT and the LGPL both, I vote for the **[Mozilla Public License 2.0](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/MPL/2.0/)**, used by Mozilla for their own projects as well as many other developers who are not okay with the GPL's high level of protection.\r\n\r\nI'm going to start calling people as I figure out what parts of the code exactly need re-licensing, but let me call some of the primary and recent contributors off memory:\r\n\r\n**PERMISSIONS NEEDED - PART 1:**\r\n\r\nSpaceToad (will contact him separately)\r\n@CovertJaguar \r\n@SirSengir \r\n@Flow86 \r\n@psxlover\r\n@AEnterprise \r\n@Soaryn \r\n@TXX59 \r\n@gishicrafter\r\n@AmilcarM11\r\n@marcin212 \r\n@RufusStark \r\n\r\n**[continued below]**\r\n\r\nIf you're fairly sure you contributed to BC but are not listed above (the list is incomplete as I will be going through the list to ensure contributions no longer used are not listed, as I am only relicensing the latest BuildCraft versions - 7.0.22 and 7.1.2 and above), answer as well!
