It doesn't make much difference relicensing because most of the codes
involved are in GPL v2 or later anyways. So I think the best strategy is to
wait and see what comes up. But maybe GPLv3 can help us counter pontential
Tivotization (i.e proprietary competing products using OLPC codebase ...
depends how far its good....)

Believe me, I know the FSF rationale quite well :)

I was just asking why _you_ think the code should be relicensed.  What
benefit do you think there is for it?
