Hi, using GPLv2 code in a GPLv2+ project is perfectly fine: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.en.html#compat-matrix-footnote-2 Not sure about the "spread factor" but there are certainly *some* parts that are GPLv2 so there is not much incentive to look further IMHO... -- Kind regards/Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Stefan Tauner _______________________________________________ flashrom mailing list [email protected] https://mail.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/flashrom
