The same should be noted about other countries too: a lot of people chiming in on this discussion seem to assume there is just one legal system and the GPL is valid under it.

Note that the FSF also worked on this problem: the equivalent provisions in GPLv3 (15 and 16) have been extended by provision 17 which takes into account the fact that the former writing was not applicable in some countries. In that regard at least, the GPLv3 should be more universal than GPLv2.
This alone is a VERY good reason for Drupal.org to move from to GPL v3. Best regards, Thomas
