That's even worse in terms of compatibility (because then the licence

  So if code is not compatible with GPLv2, it certainly will not be
compatible with GPLv2+.

This in fact raises a good point: if Sage contains code licenced under
GPLv2 only, we cannot distribute it under GPLv2+!


Jeroen.


I think you can see why I've changed the title of

http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/10248

and specifically excluded making any changes to the license conditions! (I never did make any, but Dima rightly points out there is room for confusion. But I'm not going to be the one to try to clarify the license).

The ticket title now specifically states it updates to the "Build support" and "Quality" sections.
