The licensing situation is a mess.
The only hard requirement is "compatible with GPLv2+". We prefer GPLv2+
for new code, except as detailed in ./LICENSE. We're stuck with a
sizable body of existing code that is GPLv2 (no +), but decided to put
limits to that madness. Again, see ./LICENSE for details.
I'm asking you to help with limiting the madness by sticking to GPLv2+
whenever possible.
