GPL v2 or later? #38

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
mutagen is currently licensed under GPL v2 only. This means that programs
using GPL v3 cannot use it, as far as I can see, because GPL v2 is not
compatible with GPL v3. Would it be possible to license mutagen under GPL
v2 or later, or is there an issue there that I am not aware of?

Thanks for your time,
Erik Hetzner

You could also license the other program under GPL v2 or later, rather than the 
more
restrictive GPL 3.
