    Linux has no choice but to stick with GPLv2 as they removed the `or any
    later version' clause, and therefore to change the license to GPLv3
    would require the consent of all the copyright holders. But to be honest
    the license doesn't matter that much, as long as it is free.

Our lawyers think that they can relicense Linux if they want to.
It is important to do this, to protect the users from tivoization.
