The usual text is "either version 2 of the License, or (at your option)
any later version" - compare http://opensource.org/licenses/GPL-2.0

Yes, please. See http://wiki.qemu.org/Relicensing for some background
and previous work. Reasons restricting use of GPL-2.0+ include code
copied from Linux that is licensed under that GPL-2.0-only version.

> Thanks!

Thanks for following up on this.

Cheers,
Andreas
