Yes, we've been using "GPL" to mean "any version of GPL". However, it also introduces some confusion when we're not sure whether the author meant "any version of GPL" or "GPL but I didn't bother to check what version". We might want to think about whether we should change how we do this. If we wrote "GPL-1+" when we meant "any version of GPL" that confusion would be avoided.
