What
License consistency cleanup for the plugin (no license change — it stays GNU GPL v3 or later, as required by Moodle):
LICENSEfile with the full verbatim text of the GNU GPL v3.README.md"License" section, which said "version 2 of the License" while every@licenseheader in the codebase isGNU GPL v3 or later.Why
Moodle requires that the files implementing the interface between the core and a plugin be licensed under GNU GPL v3 (or later) (Plugin contribution checklist, License). The plugin already complies in its source headers; these changes just make the top-level
LICENSE/READMEconsistent with that.Part of the licensing review in exelearning/exelearning#1895.
