Exactly this is the reason.

Well, I´m not familiear with policy decisions.  However if I´m not
completely wrong the MPL seems to be what I would call a *common license*
if I look at several projects releasing under it.  That´s why I expected
that we would have more packages which are released under MPL.

I have no personal feelings about it and if you think this is no reason
to include it in the common licenses dir feel free to close this bug.

Kind regards

        Andreas.

PS: By the way:  Perhaps we should make clear when a license is "common".
    If 2 / 17 / 42 packages share the same license or what else.
