I am releasing the extension under Mozilla license, same license under 
which I got Mozilla source code.
I have submitted the modified version  ( 0.0.2.20070330) under Mozilla 
license  yesterday.
Only reason I did not package the source with binary is that it would 
increase the size of the XPI file.
Also, the directory structure is not as professional as some of the 
other extensions. So, I was holding on to it until I can clean it up.
Now that I know there is interest I would package the source (IDL and 
C/C++ files) it with the extension in the next release.
Thanks for your interest.
