In my opinion, using GPLv3 has been the easiest of the options. It means that we can use code that is licensed with a BSD, MIT, Tcl, Apache, GPLv2, LGPL, GPLv3, etc.. So its the most compatible to the code that's out there, meaning thinking about licenses less writing more code that everyone is free to use :)
All I'm gonna say is that I see things from a different angle. :)
I have no idea what the angle is and how that licensing of «overall project» is supposed to work.
I'm lost.
Besides, I just realised that [pd META] says things like «LICENSE GPL v2» or «LICENSE GPL v3» but never «LICENSE GPL v2 OR LATER». Isn't that strange ?
The distinction has to be made between «version 2 only» and «version 2 or later» and between «version 3 only» and «version 3 and later» (even when, in that latter case, there is currently no version after 3).
BTW, there are even cases where it just says GPL without version number.
