I'm concerned about the frequent use of "or any later version" in many free software projects. Some free software enthusiasts are still not very happy with the contents of GPLv3, so why should someone place his code under a license he does not know yet? > GPLv3 should > come in a few months and Courier's Copyright holder may want to use it. > Then, there will still be an incompatibility: would the DomainKeys > Identified Mail (DKIM) addition have to be reverted in that case? Don't spend too much brain about that version-stuff. After all changes that have been made, I still hope that GPLv3 will be somewhat compatible with GPLv2, so you can use GPLv2 code in GPLv3 projects. Everything else would break GPLv3's neck. cu, Bernd -- Fachbegriffe der Informatik (#382): Personal Firewall Das Konzept ist, daß Du beim Hausbau massenweise große Einstiegsluken für'n Einbrecher offenläßt, 'nen altersschwachen Dackel danebensetzt, der im Falle eines Falles anfängt, asthmatisch zu bellen, damit Du dann weißt, welche von den Löchern Du mit dicken Wattebällchen zumachen mußt.
