Is echoping licensed under GPLv2 or GPLv2-or-later?  I can't find
anything conclusive in the echoping sources (probably something you want
to fix :)).

GPLv2-or-later with OpenSSL exception is compatible with LGPLv3 if I
understand correctly.

Anyway, it seems we have gathered plenty of arguments that probably will
delay re-licensing for some time.
