I completely agree. That's why I asked in my original comment why the other library authors don't want to move from GPLv2 to GPLv3+, or why the LibreDWG authors won't switch to a non-copyleft license if they've changed their minds on copyleft.
- pyre 12y ago> LibreDWG authors won't switch My reading of the article says that the copyright belongs to the FSF. It seems unlikely that the FSF will ever change license to anything other than GPLv3+. Some of the other projects seem like forks where the original code copyright belongs to someone else. Unless the original owned changes the license, the devs have their hands tied.
