GPLv2 and GPLv3 Coexisting In the Same Project?

cyclop writes "I am coding a data analysis application in my laboratory that I would like to release as free (as in freedom) software. Moreover I am going to begin a small OSS game that will be based, in part, on GPLv2 libraries. Problem is: in both cases, I'd like to be able to exchange code both with GPLv2 and (future) GPLv3 projects. I have no particular passions about either license — only thing is I don't want BSD-style 'do anything you want' licensing but a copyleft license. I know that GPLv2 and GPLv3 are not compatible. What can I do? Double licensing? Is there a compatible-with-both license? Adding exceptions? What do you think is the best way to address the GPLv2-to-GPLv3 transition without ending up on one or the other side of the barricade?"

try gphoto2 if you can not mount them as a mass storage device...

if your talking about a digital camera? (not a webcam?)

i can understand the troll status of your comment as digital cameras are off topic, but digital cameras are not an issue for Linux as they all work fine in Linux, almost all of them are just FAT32 storage devices as far as Linux is concerned, unless you compiled your own kernel and did not add support for FAT32 or missed something else like USB support, but i am just giving you the shadow of a doubt just incase you are not being a troll and really need help with your digital camera...
