I would like to switch the license of AppengineJS from MIT to Apache
2.0

Mainly to be compatible with the license iof GAE/J SDK and RingoJS,
but also because Apache 2.0 is more lawyer friendly?

Anyone sees any problem with that?

Besides the fact that appenginejs will be incompatible with GPLv2?

:-P

P.S.: in case it's not obvious, I'm kidding! Why would anyone want to
distribute GPLv2 code that runs on top of GAE?

Hmm,

we can solve this with dual licensing: MIT/Apache 2.0, no?

Probably, but why bother? I can't think of any scenario where one
would want to *distribute* GPLv2 code *along with* apenginejs.
