How 'bout: you look inside the file? I think "COPYING" should not be synonymous with "GPL". It should just mean "this is the file that contains the terms under which copying (and related activities) can take place". So it can contain the GPLv2, the GPLv3, the LGPL, or whatever else applies to your software (tho I prefer if you stick to one of those ;-). Stefan
