Conflicting license claims in source.

Conflicting with Pippy licence in https://github.com/sugarlabs/develop-activity What is to be done in cases like this, where an older version of code is carrying v2.0, would we need to licence Develop under v2.0 or can we licence it under v3.0? I'm not sure, but to me the former makes more sense.

Thanks.

Moving Pippy to GPLv3+ seems possible, as "or later" is used. An edit of source files here.

Then, use the new Pippy source files in Develop.

Then, moving Develop to GPLv3+ is not blocked by the Pippy source files, and the next blockage if any will be revealed.

On the other hand, if the Pippy source files in Develop are GPLv2+, they can already be moved to GPLv3+.
