I allways believed the license to be GPL v2 or later: As GPL v2 says:
| If the Program does not specify a version number of this License,
| you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
| Foundation.
But I have no objections to stating that fact explicitly. Technically
one could argue that your are eliminating GPL v1 but that is ok.
I would request a change of my email though. Please replace
Goswin von Brederlow <brede...@informatik.uni-tuebingen.de>
with
Goswin von Brederlow <goswin-...@web.de>
MfG
Goswin
