I just noticed several patches have put up for review that contain

be
licensed under either a BSD license or GNU Lesser General Public

v.2.1 (mentioned explicitly when submitting patches on
bugs.webkit.org). In
order to change this policy, we would need to have a larger
discussion as
this is not a decision that can be made by any one person. If you
have
submitted a patch recently that is under another license, please
consider
re-submitting it with either of the two allowed licenses as we
cannot land
them as they are. I am sorry we did not notice this sooner.

Shouldn't patches like this be reverted immediately upon notice and
then having a discussion rather then the other way around? Has it
been reverted or the license changed yet?
