[Fwd: upgrading GNU packages to GPLv3]

Von: Sven Neumann

I am forwarding this mail from the FSF to the developer list for your information and for discussion.

The attached mail is a bit low on pointers to actual changes. The sources cited in the Wikipedia GPL article include diffs (some official, some unofficial) by Groklaw and FSF. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_General_Public_License#Version_3

Do we currently have to consider any technical problems (e.g. some file which do not mention "version 2 or any later")?

Reagrds, Michael

The summary, resulting from a short discussion on the #gimp IRC channel:

We won't change to GPLv3 for 2.4. After 2.4 has been released, this topic can be discussed.

Regards, Michael
