RMS asked if there are is reason GnuTLS should remain LGPLv2.1+ instead
of using LGPLv3+.
The reasons I'm familiar with includes lynx under GPLv2-only. Gnucash
is also said to contain GPLv2-only code.
Are there other reasons not to use LGPLv3+?
I recall hearing about policies that mandate LGPLv2.1+ in some projects,
for example the core libraries in GNOME, but I cannot find any reference
to this out there. Anyone?
