Joerg pointed something else out to me that we REALLY need to look into when gNewSense 2.0 comes around. There are a BUNCH of applications that have GPLv2 or later and some projects will upgrade to version 3. However, 2 and three are incompatible, (like the CDDL and GPL) and some upgrades might actually make the software undistributable in binary form. :P
Isn't that a problem only for "GPLv2 only" applications, and not for "GPLv2 or later" applications?
Since GPLv3 is included in "GPLv2 or later", I don't think "GPLv2 or later" can be incompatible with GPLv3.
