Hello,
I'm just making a patch to the SeaMonkey file
pref-viewing_messages.xul[1] that has no license block so far. I looked
at http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/boilerplate-1.1/index.html but I'm still
wondering what people I should list under Contributors and who should be
mentioned as the initial developer of that file.
Hopefully someone can give me some insight on the legal stuff.

To find the initial developer, you would need to look back through the
CVS history. Sadly, it's not a trivial task.
As for listing contributors, you need list only yourself.
