This is not the common GPLv2 license format: You say "and no later"
rather than "or (at your option) any later version". Is there any
particular reason for this, or was that just an oversight?
Please compare http://wiki.qemu.org/Relicensing on our efforts to make
code GPLv2+.

To avoid dealing with the constantly changing FSF postal address, please
use a link to their licenses page or to the specific (versioned) license
as outlined on gnu.org.
