Thanks for your honest response and for considering whether to change or not the license. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with GPLv3 per se, but given that most OpenEmbedded layers (meta-beagleboard, openembedded-core, meta-96boards, etc.) have very liberal licenses (MIT/X11, BSD) I wondered if there was an actual reason for picking GPLv3.
