Presumably after that happens I can put License: GPLv2 with exceptions in the corresponding spec file. This is the Classpath exception, which is fine for Fedora. Go ahead and use: License: GPLv2 with exceptions (I've added entries for the Classpath exception to the GPL section of the Licensing list to make this clear.) ~spot ___ Fedora-legal-list mailing list Fedora-legal-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-legal-list

Presumably after that happens I can put License: GPLv2 with exceptions in the corresponding spec file. Is it wrong to fall back to License: GPLv2 in the meantime? I'd like to have the exception though to hopefully make it GPLv3 compatible. This may be impossible, note that GPLv3 allows a downstream to remove permissive exceptions.
