Now that I've switched coreutils to GPL V3, I find the default behavior

2007-07-10 Jim Meyering <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
GPL v3 is the latest: copyright.el should not prompt for a v3 comment
* emacs-lisp/copyright.el (copyright-current-gpl-version): Set to 3.
* autoinsert.el (auto-insert-alist): s/2/3/ in the generated comment.
