You need to OK that with all the contributors and make sure no one objects.  If 
there is already language that states it some place else it should just be a 
request for any objections, but if there is no such language then it is 
basically a license change.  If I am no mistaken, GPL2 states "or greater", so 
does anyone object?

Do we just need to add the "or greater" to code we have contributed to 
the lowest branch it is in?
