Do I understand correctly that the content of php-elisp/debian/* is currently licensed under the terms of the GNU GPL v2 or later? If this is the case, since GPL-3+ is compatible with GPL-2+, what's wrong in keeping Thierry's contributions under GPL-2+, while the remainder of debian/* is migrated to GPL-3+ ? The effective resulting licensing status for debian/* would still be GPL-3+, although the debian/copyright file would be slightly less simple, but, oh well, I guess you could live with that... Or am I missing anything important? I hope this helps. Bye! -- http://www.inventati.org/frx/ There's not a second to spare! To the laboratory! .....................................................
