Thanks for clarifying Sebastian. I prefer discussions to polls to make decisions (and a poll would be not binding anyway<span></span>) but I'm not against a poll if people think it's necessary.<br><br>On Saturday, 8 June 2013, Sebastian Silva wrote:<br>

<div>Hi,<br>
The poll winner was GPLv3 but the poll was "non-binding", i.e. the
community can't force contributors to switch licenses and nobody
sent a patch to change license notices.<br>
<br>
I and other members of the community think it's important to
support freedom by using copyleft, therefore most of our
contributions are using GPLv3. <br>
<br>
I checked and it turns out Apache 2.0 license is compatible with
GPLv3 (but incompatible with GPLv2):<br>
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#apache2" target="_blank">http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#apache2</a><br>

Regards,<br>

<div>Anyway even on gplv3 I think the situation is pretty

Sorry for the late update; the reporting mechanism for our voting
software temporarily broke.
Summary: the winner was **GNU GPL version 3, or any later version**.
## Results Details ##
55 out of 217 eligible members voted, or a little more than ¼.
The full results of this election ranked the candidates in order of
preference (from most preferred to least preferred):
1. GNU GPL version 3, or any later version
2. GNU GPL version 2, or any later version
3. Don't know or don't care
Each number in the table below shows how many times the candidate on the
left beat the matching candidate on the top. The winner is on the top of
the left column.
v3 v2 DC
v3 -- 34 37
v2 21 -- 42
DC 18 13 --
Based on a sheer count of 1st place votes, v3 received 49% of the vote,
v2 received 29% of the vote, and the apathetic position received the
remaining 22% of the vote.
Full details (and alternative election method calculations) are visible
at the Selectricity page linked in the original voting ticket email.
