currently we have all those under GPL-2. Now when GPL-3 becomes available |
| 5 |
people have the option to use GPL-3. However that will still allow people |
| 6 |
to use GPL-2 if their patents, etc need it. SO it is not much difference. |

The big difference that actually matters is when applications start to get |
| 9 |
distributed only for the GPL-3 and actually then I would also like to see |
| 10 |
the LICENSE change to GPL-3. |

I see little benifit in having GPL-2+ but a lot of potential confusion and a |
| 13 |
lot of work for developers to check all pkges. |
