1.4 +This directory contains common Python code.
1.5 +
1.6 +The basic rule is that if Python code is cross-module (that's "module" in the
1.7 +Mozilla meaning - as in "module ownership") and is MPL-compatible, it should
1.8 +go here.
1.9 +
1.10 +What should not go here:
1.11 +
1.12 +* Python that is not MPL-compatible (see other-licenses/)
1.13 +* Python that has good reason to remain close to its "owning" (Mozilla)
1.14 + module (e.g. it is only being consumed from there).
