It is intended to fill the gap between permissive and strong copyleft licenses, for people who want strong copyleft of the GPL and the file-level copyleft of MPL at one time, offering freedom and clarity to its users.

As noted in the License Review process page, there are some additional items of information you will need to provide:

 * Compare it to and contrast it with the most similar OSI-approved license(s).
 * Describe any legal review the license has been through, including whether it was drafted by a lawyer.
