 Currently when running `npm install`:
 {{{
 $ npm install
 npm WARN package.json WordPress at 4.3.0 No README data
 npm WARN package.json WordPress at 4.3.0 license should be a valid SPDX
 license expression
 }}}

 > > Release 2.0 of the SPDX Specification introduces License Expression
 Syntax that supports the ability to identify common variations of SPDX-
 identified licenses without the need to define each potential variation as
 a distinct license on the SPDX License List. This new syntax supports the
 ability to use a simple “+” operator after a license short identifier to
 indicate “or later version” (e.g. GPL-2.0+).

 Incoming patch changes the license in `package.json` from `GPLv2 or later`
 to `GPL-2.0+`
