Just wondering what is the motivation for not moving to the newest GPL? Some solid reasons could enforce staying with GPLv2. I'm not certain individual preferences should restrict software projects from using newer, stronger FOSS licensing. I for one have no reason to request SEC stay at GPLv2. After reading the primer on GPLv3 it seems to be in the better interest of both the project and the developer (risto). IANAL though, so maybe someone can shed some light on what I am missing here. -- -dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
