[..] 1. What are the pros and cons? A "discussion" as you call it should contain those, while your post clearly did not. 2. Since all people have to sign over their (C) to the FSF in a GNU project, can't the FSF just decide a switch to GPL3 at any time? (If not, what good would such a sign-over of rights be?) Sorry if those are considered stupid or aggravating questions, but I figured a license change is not something that you do easily, such as updating to a newer version of some software, as it includes putting yourself out, vulnerable not to an army of hackers but an army of lawyers. It has to be considered very carefully. Stefan. -- coresystems GmbH • Brahmsstr. 16 • D-79104 Freiburg i. Br.
