Even though Gnucash's COPYING file contains the text of the GPLv3 (without any comments regarding the applicability to Gnucash), its LICENSING file clarifies the legal situation by explicit statements: - --------- 8>< -------------------------- This software is provided under a mutually-compatible set of licenses. The software, for most intents and purposes, is licensed under the GNU General Public License, Version 2, or (at your option) Version 3. Almost all of the source files are licensed under the GNU GPL, Version 2, "or (at your option) any later version". Some of the source files are licensed under "Version 2 and/or Version 3" of the GNU GPL specifically. [...] Some of the source files are in the public domain. Please see the individual source files for their specific licensing. - --------- 8>< -------------------------- And from what I've seen in the source files I've not seen any file that is licensed under GPLv3 explicitly excluding GPLv2. So, Adam, if you believe Gnucash's COPYING file should be fixed, please go ahead.
