I realize that I am just a user but if it is not broke, why fix it? The
GPL3 is more restrictive and not less. It only restricts anyone downstream
from using any gpl2 code with it whereas leaving it gpl2+ allows anyone
downstream the choice of using it with gpl2 or gpl3 code. My 2 cents but I
consider any license that is not backwardly compatible with itself to be
broken...
