Why? AFAIK there are no plans to change X2Go from GPL to some non-free license.
Just to mention a thought of us: Some time ago we've discussed what it would mean for the project to change from GPL to AGPL (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affero_General_Public_License). But this should be discussed in public.
Well, if you use AGPLv3 and have any relevant external sources available under GPLv3 and all external contributors agree that would be OK. Regarding such a change the biggest problem would be reaching all contributors to your code (if there are any ;), I would not expect any objections.
