Maybe it is good to start the relicensing process for (L)GPLv2-only to (L)GPLv2+. After all, that's the way the GPL is written. An please donc make the option of v3-only like KDE did. It is not practical. I totally agree about moving to v3, but don't put the cart before the horses :-) Hub _______________________________________________ gtk-devel-list mailing list gtk-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-devel-list
