Andreas,

I am sorry you feel this way, I appreciate the work the that you and all 
the community members contribute to this project. We are not trying to 
hijack anyone one here. One of the key values that OE-Core and Yocto 
Project are trying to provide is a best in class with the metadata, and 
a very important part of that is the LICENSE values, when we notice it's 
wrong, we want to correct it.

We will pull the v2 change and then Beth will correct the LICENSE meta-data.

Thanks for your work!

Sau!
