For the next release of Pd-extended, I think we should release it under the GPL v3, so I am asking to see if there are any objections.
This is my understanding of what this would mean: the only real added restriction would be that things included in Pd-extended could not be licensed "GPL v2 only", it would need to be licensed "GPL v2 or later" or BSD-style. If Pd-extended is again released using GPL v2, that means that no GPL v3 code can be included.
So releasing Pd-extended as GPL v3 means that people can choose the GPL v3 for code that is included, or they can totally ignore the change, and keep the code as "GPL v2 or later" or BSD-style.
Here's a bit of previous discussion on this:
