Committed and added to appropriate license groups.
Concerning transition: This issue isn't the most pressing of our
problems, so IMHO transition should be done gradually, whenever an
ebuild is touched for another reason. We can evaluate things again in
a year from now.
If you check the license of a package and find that e.g. GPL-2
(without the plus sign) is correct, then it would be useful to add a
comment "GPL-2 only" to the ebuild. This is to avoid checking packages
twice.
