Subject: Which license?
The Perl module files like lib/Tree.pm state: This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself. <http://dev.perl.org/licenses/> defines Perl license as GPL 1 or newer or Artistic 1. But the LICENSE file quotes Artistic 2.0 license. May I ask which of the two statements follow your intention? The current situation makes the three module files (GPL+ or Artistic) and all the other files (Makefile.PL, tests etc.) Artistic 2.0. I think it's not what you want. Could you please provide a clarification?

Hi Petr I suspect that's my mistake. I'll release a fix over the weekend, going with the Perl licence (as we spell it in Australia). On 15/04/16 18:40, Petr Pisar via RT wrote: Show quoted text

I've released V 1.08 and it's now on CPAN. There are no code changes but there are various cleanups of the distro itself. See the Changes file for details.

Thanks. But the META files still declare Artistic 2.0 because the Makefile.PL and Build.pl do so. I think they should be fixed too.
Fixed in V 1.09, which is now on CPAN. Thanx!
