Currently kalkun is licensed under `GPL-3-or-later`. However, kalkun is closely bound to Gammu which is `GPL-2-only`. Moreover, some of the code/files in kalkun is also under GPL2 license. For example: application/plugins/sms_to_twitter/libraries/Epi.php application/plugins/sms_to_twitter/libraries/Twitter.php application/sql/mysql/pbk_gammu.sql application/sql/pgsql/pbk_gammu.sql application/sql/sqlite/pbk_gammu.sql The problem is that these licenses (`GPL-3-or-later` & `GPL-2-only`) are actually not compatible as per https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.en.html#AllCompatibility Closes: kalkun-sms#505
