Description

Author: mati

Description:
This is not really a bug, but I think it should be fixed none the less: Special:Version on 1.12 (also the current Snapshot used on the english wikipedia) says that the software is under "either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version". But the link a few pages later points to http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html, which now is version 3 of the license.

Version: 1.12.x
Severity: minor
