Hi, I'm currently packaging GMastermind for Debian. In the process, it has been discovered that, according to a technical reading of the README, GMastermind is licensed under GPL-2 only (i.e. without "or, at your option, any later version").
However, according to the headers on the source files, it would appear that the intention was to license under GPL-2 or any later version. If you are fine with releasing your contributions under GPL-2+, please copy the following statement, fill in your name and send it to the email addresses below. (If not, then please send a message anyway so we know.) ----------------------------------------------------------------- I, <YOUR NAME>, irrevocably give permission to use, redistribute, modify and to distribute modified copies of any and all of my contributions to the program "GMastermind" under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation, either version 2 of the License, or (should anyone choose to do so) any later version.
