[20:28:42] <taavi>	 do we think this comment https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/extensions/AbuseFilter/+/6c7844b4eaea04f1be8160297d0d2d7f286be798/includes/Parser/AFPToken.php#9 is specifically trying to restrict that file to what we today would call GPL-2.0-only (while the rest of AF is -or-later) or is that just a not-that-specific comment stating the same
[20:28:42] <taavi>	 license as the rest of the project

[20:35:18] <Krinkle>	 That's SVN era
[20:35:39] <Krinkle>	 COPYING for the repo as a whole was aded after that point in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/mediawiki/extensions/AbuseFilter/+/fc0b18e2d689e47ec01342e970f248f81097d9e1/
[20:35:47] <Krinkle>	 At the time that file was the main file with all classes in it
[20:35:54] <Krinkle>	 for some reason Aaron copied it only to that one class
[20:36:12] <Krinkle>	 so if that is to be taken that way, it would be a statement for the repo as a whole more or less
[20:40:16] <Krinkle>	 taavi: I'd say remove it.
[20:40:56] <Krinkle>	 Neither Victor nor Andrew were known to have specific opinions about the GPLv2 to my knowledge.
[20:41:29] <taavi>	 works for me, I'll make a patch
[20:41:57] <Krinkle>	 https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/AbuseFilter/+/107764 added the COPYING file several years later
[20:42:17] <Krinkle>	 so we can forward any legal complaints to Reedy (j/k)

[20:47:38] * Krinkle pushes the shiny button
[20:52:54] <taavi>	 Krinkle: thanks. the other similar case I noticed was https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/mediawiki/skins/MonoBook/+/refs/heads/master/resources/screen-common.less#4 . as far as I can tell, that dates from the times when monobook was a part of core, so given we've treated all of core as -or-later I would do the same here as well?
[20:56:01] <Krinkle>	 indeed. https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki/blob/REL1_23/skins/monobook/main.css

[20:56:59] <Krinkle>	 It used to just say "GPL" without a link even
[20:57:13] <Krinkle>	 and http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html is a redirect to v3 for what its worth
[20:57:17] <taavi>	 oh, that comment is older than me then
[20:57:29] <Krinkle>	 ^_^
[20:57:36] <taavi>	 v3 was not out by that time :D
[20:58:02] <Krinkle>	 TIL you are post-2000. 
[20:58:07] <Krinkle>	 The math adds up, I just hadn't thought about it.
