Follow-up Comment #31, task #14945 (project administration):

>> 1) The EROFS file system can be licensed as "License: GNU General Public
License v2 or later", not GPL-v2 only; 

>I disagree, in the context that the user would have to follow GPLv2-only
terms. 

Please refer to:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#AllCompatibility
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#compat-matrix-footnote-2

It clear say that
While _you may release your project (either your original work and/or work
that you received and modified) under GPLv2-or-later in this case_, note that
the other code you're using must remain under GPLv2 only. As long as your
project depends on that code, you won't be able to upgrade the license of your
project to GPLv3-or-later, and the work as a whole (any combination of both
your project and the other code) can only be conveyed under the terms of
GPLv2.

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
