... no doubt - you're totally right

Our customers often requesting a GPL compliant SDK. They would like to
get SDK's which could be published without any restrictions.

I just would like to minimize the number of packages which have to be 
modified. In my opinion the GPLv2 would be a good choice.

The attached file is dumping all the packages as csv table ==> the license 
information would be really important for our release process :-)
