MLP 2.0 commented #42
Description
Q6: I want to distribute software which is available under the MPL, either changed or unchanged, within my organization. What do I have to do?
Nothing. The right to private modification and distribution (and inside a company or organization counts as 'private') is another right guaranteed by free and open source software licenses, including the MPL.
@Feodor2 is not Organization but Moonchild.
Q17: What does "distribute" mean?
The MPL uses "distribute" in the sense of delivery of a copy of the software to another person or entity. We do not use distribute to mean "make available" in the sense of "making functionality available over the web without delivery of a copy of the software." So e.g. in a web-based application, the code which runs on the server is not 'distributed' to the user, but the code which is sent to the client (e.g. HTML, CSS, JavaScript) does count as 'distributed'.
So, repos may be restored without negative actions, because there is no MPL 2.0 breaking.
