Ah, sorry, I thought you meant LGPL. Still, the GNU project prefers GPLv3 these
days, and changing this particular module to be v2 would probably require
consultation with RMS

unfortunately this will will prevent OSTree[1] which is distributed
under GPLv2+ to use parse-datetime
I think I'd rather leave that one GPL, as it's pretty complicated and doesn't
redo anything in any library. It was originally intended to share code among
GPLed apps.
Hi Paul,
I would like to use the parse-datetime module from a project distributed
under GPLv2. Could it be possible to relax the license so I can
use it?
Thanks,
Giuseppe
