Gambas is currently licensed under the GPL 2 License. For past versions
of Gambas this has been a good license to use.

In June version 3 of the GPL license has become available.

See http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html or
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gpl

And http://gplv3.fsf.org/ for video by Richard Stallman on GPL 3.

By being an early adopter of GPL 3 this may give Gambas 2 some
advantage. However there have been some critics of the multimedia
aspects of the license.

What do people think?

Thanks
