Thanks, this is a move in the right direction!

However, you also changed the LICENSE identifier w/o explaining the reason in 
the commit message! This is rather critical... I checked the nw-configurator.c 
and indeed GPLv2 was totally wrong, but you have to explain the change anyway. 
Going forward there will be a new requirement for Yocto compliance to properly 
explain license changes like that and there's a new field "License-Update:"
