GNUstep Licensing.... GPLv2.1+ for apps instead of GPLv3

Hey guys.  I'm thinking that we may want to move the apps back to GPL2.1+ for the apps instead of GPLv3.  While I understand many companies objections to GPLv3, I don't understand why it impacts GNUstep since the applications are the only part which are GPLv3, the libraries (the most important part) are LGPLv2.1+.  So I am a bit confused.

At any rate, since it is impacting us, I would like to put it up to a vote.  Should we move our licensing back to GPLv2 for the applications or not?   If so, I will make certain to tell the FSF that this is our intention and explain why we are doing this.

Please let me know how all of you feel about this.
