A number of other points were raised here. For instance, that in certain cases the MPL license would require you to change a specific file in the source-distribution itself (which kind of gets in the way of signed packages). Since this flame is only regarding the specific issue of keeping the source availble for one extra year, I gather that in all other points no difficulty was found?
