No problem, sorry it sat so long w/o any attention.

Hm... Talked to some FESCo folks, they say that the buildroot specified in the
guidelines was accepted by FESCo via a vote at FUDCon as the standard for now,
but with work that needs doing at the rpm level to properly address concerns. So
for the moment, I'm told that it does have to be as specified... Who voted
against it?

I saw that the actual license file says v2, but that's the case with almost
every GPL-licensed bits these days. My understanding from the FESCo folks I was
talking to is that unless the author says v2 is explicitly required, to just
keep the license field general, specifying just "GPL". Personally, I don't
really care either way, just trying to follow the letter of the law, so to
speak. (Though I like "GPLv2" better than "GPL2".)
