Do I infer correctly, from the comments of D Haley, that declaring it GPLv2+ in
a few spots can let me make the change without altering each and every source
file?

That would be wonderful, because altering the source files has a bit of a
negative effect.  (The modification date is a useful thing, in indicating at a
glance which parts of a code have been reworked, and which worked from the
start.  I'm a scientist, and I trust 1960s fortran subroutines more than
months-old c++.)

I would love to get a clear statement on what I should do.  I am hoping, from D
Haley's comment, that I may satisfy Fedora's needs by modifying just a few
files ... but which ones?  (I have modified my gri.spec, but I don't know if
that's being used by Fedora, actually.)

PS. I know I'm being a nuisance on this, but I do think it is better for me to
use my time on the code, rather than on reading documents about licenses.

PPS. Gri is quit old, which explains why I say "GPL" in some places ... that's
all there was, once upon a time!

Dan
