Description

[Felix Schwarz]

There is a broken link on http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/relicensing-faq.html to http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/boilerplate-1.1/fields.html.

Comment 1

[Hermann Schwab]

The broken link is in the 4th paragraph below "What is the new Mozilla licensing scheme?"

mozilla.org has produced pre-prepared license boilerplate for inserting into new source files, and also an example of how to fill in the blank fields.

I would suggest using the anchor http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/boilerplate-1.1/#mainContent instead of fields.html
This anchor is showing a table and an example how to fill in the fields.

Could somebody please check if linking to http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/boilerplate-1.1/#mainContent
is appropiate, and apply patch attachment 275629 [details] [diff] [review]?

Thanks for the bug report. I have fixed this by rewording the paragraph and removing the second link entirely.
