There's random files in purple/ which have a MPL/LGPL/GPL tri-license on them (i.e. we wrote them). These should be switched to the MPL 2.0 license.

MPL 1.1 Tri-license --> MPL 2.0:
See http://lxr.instantbird.org/instantbird/search?string=MPL+1.1%2FGPL+2.0%2FLGPL+2.1

We could also add MPL 2.0 to the following:
purple/upgrade-libpurple.sh
purple/locales/jar.mn
purple/locales/en-US/*.properties
purple/libpurple/protocols/create-cid.sh

> purple/locales/en-US/*.properties

These l10n files are generated automatically from the .c files of libpurple which are GPLed, so they are also GPLed.

Ah, good point. I wonder if they should have the libpurple GPL header then?

This changes all the license to MPL 2 (and adds license to a few files). It doesn't add a GPL license to the *.properties files.

Committed as http://hg.instantbird.org/instantbird/rev/6417d64517d7

I think if we're interested in adding the GPL headers to the *.properties files, that can be handled in a different bug.
