Hi Mark!

For Nonpareil and Nonpareil-derived code, I'd actually prefer that you stick with GPLv3, but without the "or any later version" clause. The next release of Nonpareil will use the GPLv3 license. In addition to omitting the "or any later version", in the README, I ispecifically state "Note that I am not granting permission to redistribute or modify Nonpareil under the terms of any later version of the General Public License." However, I now DO grant permission specifically for GPLv3.

The reason for omitting the "or any later version" clause is that, while I don't have any reason to expect the Free Software Foundation to change their policies in the future, I also cannot be certain that they won't.

Best regards,
Eric
