What
License consistency cleanup (no license change — it stays GNU GPL v3 or later, as required by Moodle):
README.md"License" section, which said "version 2 of the License" while the bundledLICENSEfile is the full GNU GPL v3 and 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; this just removes the stale "version 2" wording in the README.
Part of the licensing review in exelearning/exelearning#1895.
