Can you elaborate?
I'm sure there are good reasons not to bother going to GPLv3, but I
don't understand what you mean by "premature".
Switching to GPL3 would make us license-incompatible with a large body
of code (everything under a copyleft that isn't v3-compatible, in
particular, code under v2-only). It would also make us
license-compatible with a large body of code (anything that adds
restrictions that are okay with v3 but not v2).
It is my impression that the former body of code is much larger than the
latter, and it is my opinion that we should not switch as long as that
remains the case.
