    We will allow existing GPLv2 licensed software to be - converted to GPLv3 or other similar license changes on a - case-by-case basis provided that the FreeBSD Core Team is - given appropriate technical justification.

    - -

    Each piece of software that is being converted to a - different license must be submitted to the FreeBSD Core Team - for approval through this process as though it were a new - piece of software.

    - -

    For Free Software Foundation maintained software except - GCC, GDB, and binutils, all patches posted after the date the - software switched to GPLv3 will be considered to be covered by - the GPLv3 and thus will be subject to this rule. For GCC, GDB - and binutils we accept the community practice of allowing - patches to be relicensed under GPLv2 at the patch author's - discretion. The author's permission must be documented in the - commit message for each patch that is committed.
