> The metis LICENSE.txt says: "Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0". It does not say "or later" or "Version 2.x", so how do we know that any version 2 is ok? How do we know there won't be an Apache license version 2.1 in the future that has different terms? When I've found projects licensed under the Apache License version 2.0 I've tried to list them in the portfiles as "Apache-2.0".
2 means 2.0 not 2.x. Keeping the .0 will break checking for license
conflicts.
