Firebird-SDBC Licensing

Hi,

The Firebird-sdbc drivers still have BSD licence headers, which I
believe is a relic of the skeleton driver. Is it acceptable to add the
following to the top of the file as is done for MPL/Apache (APL?) and
previously MPL/LGPL mix-licenced files?

(The skeleton driver itself seems to have been migrated to APL within AOO, see
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/trunk/main/odk/examples/DevelopersGuide/Database/DriverSkeleton/
However I guess keeping the BSD licence for LO makes it more useful?)

Cheers,

	Andrzej
