And PEL has that piece of text in every file, so you are free to upgrade to GPL3! > My project is licenced under GPL v3.

I guess there should be nothing stopping us from doing so... Does anybody have any objection to such a license change? -- Martin Geisler Do your secure multi-party computations (SMPC) with VIFF, the Virtual Ideal Functionality Framework.
