Hi!

Hum... no... :-(

- From http://www.mozdev.org/copyright.html, we can see:

"All code for each project hosted on the Site must be made available
under the Mozilla Public License (MPL) unless otherwise noted on the
project pages."

Also, I asked to Mycroft project owner about the license, and he said
that plugins from Mycroft are released under MPL.
And programs licensed under MPL only are non-free:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2004/06/msg00221.html

Plugins that may fit on our interests can be seen at:
http://mycroft.mozdev.org/download.html?submitform=Search&category=4

There may be other plugins on other categories too, but I think that the
we will find the majority on "Health" category.

What we can do is: try to contact each plugin developer and ask him
about distributing his plugin under MPL and a free license (dual
licensing MPL/GPL, for example).
We can also create our own plugins.

Or we will have the plugins available only on non-free section of Debian.


Best regards,
Nelson
