Someone raised the point you can't change from GPLv3 if someone else touched the code and they don't approve the change (unless you rewrite everything yourself). I'm not an expert but considering v3 is to avoid proprietary software more than v2, I would be very amused if this guy gets forced to admit it's always been GPLv3 and he wasn't allowed to set a restrictive license.
