In my opinion, using GPLv3 has been the easiest of the options.  It

code that's out there, meaning thinking about licenses less writing more
code that everyone is free to use :)

All I'm gonna say is that I see things from a different angle. :)

I have no idea what the angle is and how that licensing of «overall project» is supposed to work.

I'm lost.

Besides, I just realised that [pd META] says things like «LICENSE GPL v2» or «LICENSE GPL v3» but never «LICENSE GPL v2 OR LATER». Isn't that strange ?

The distinction has to be made between «version 2 only» and «version 2 or later» and between «version 3 only» and «version 3 and later» (even when, in that latter case, there is currently no version after 3).

BTW, there are even cases where it just says GPL without version number.
