     1 This directory contains common Python code.
     3 The basic rule is that if Python code is cross-module (that's "module" in the
     4 Mozilla meaning - as in "module ownership") and is MPL-compatible, it should
     5 go here.
     7 What should not go here:
     9 * Python that is not MPL-compatible (see other-licenses/)
    10 * Python that has good reason to remain close to its "owning" (Mozilla)
    11   module (e.g. it is only being consumed from there).
