GPL3 compatibility #3

Could you make this available under GPL3?

smgoller commented 9 years ago

Is there some reason why GPLv2 is insufficient? My GPL-fu is weak.

Storyyeller commented 9 years ago

The problem is that GPLv2 and GPLv3 are incompatible, so this can't be used together with a GPLv3 project.

At least that's how I understand it, I'm not a lawyer or anything.
