I don't know the specifics of the expr case, and it may well be that the GPL
is something that Shadrokh Yadegari feels strongly about.  Still, as a data
point, when the codebase that is now Apache Lucy was granted to the ASF and we
had to get 20 copyright holders to sign off on on a license change from
GPL/Artistic to Apache 2.0, not a single one of them objected.  Not everyone
cares.
