Hi Dave,

I'll respond to your email since I didn't include the OP in my earlier
email and I just realized they may not be signed up to the ML yet.

As I said in the previous email the terms seem to make it clear the work
may be modified under either of the two licenses and the other license
dropped in the new work.

Best wishes,

Drew
