Re: [glob2-devel] Version 3 of GPL license issued yesterday

[Kieran P]

Ok. Then all someone needs to do is update the COPYING file in master branch, and it will be included in all future versions.

Does anyone actually have a list of changes from version 2 though? Is it just rewritten after 16 years to make things clearer and include some little things in it? For all we know, it could grant someone the permission to take over a project when inactive for a certain period of time. Who knows ^_^

I vote to switch to GPL version 3, anyway the license has auto-upgrade ability
so we don't need to have permissions of previous contributors.
