Licence compatibility

Description

In 1.0-dev, some files have different licence than the one we currently uses (GPLv1). Check what we should do (maybe upgrading to GPLv2) and if we can use such code.

I read that revised BSD licence is compatible with GPL (but not original BSD licence).

Btw, what are the differences between GPL v1 and v2?

aircrack-ng is already GPLv2, so that GPL problem is solved.

  • summary changed from Licence compatibility to Licence compatibility and check for an update to GPLv3

Also check if it would be interesting to adopt GPLv3 (and if it's allowed/possible).
Check pro/cons.
