Hi Aurélien,
thanks for getting back to me. You can find some of your answers here
[1]. If AMS is GPL V2 both licenses would be perfectly valid in your case.
Depending on which one you choose, you will need to update the license
file. The license on your project page is not really of consequence its
just confusing. I would also suggest that you add headers to all of your
source code in the event that someone derives something from your work.
regards,
Brendan

can you just clarify the license for this for me? The Fedora review
has asked me
wether it is GPLv2 (as in the license file) or GPLv3 as per
the sourceforge page?
I'm actually not sure here!
The GPL is v2 in the code as it's the same one as coming from AMS.
I chose the v3 kind of "by accident" on Sourceforge (i.e. I didn't pay
attention!)
To be honest:
- I'm not even sure of what is the difference between the version 2 and
the version 3 of the GPL.
- The code is ported from AMS. Am I aload to change the license just
like that?
(it's crazy how although the concept of open-source is easy to grasp, it
gets quickly more complex when you dive into the licenses themselves)
Any advice here guys? It's my first open-source project and I'm kind of
lost!
@Fons: is it OK with you if I update the License to the GPLv3?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Aurélien
