Subject: License clarification

From: Sandro Mani <manisandro [...] gmail.com>
During review for the Fedora packages, licensing issues were raised: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1352666#c2 From the homepage, I read for version 0.18 "Relicense from Artistic-2+ OR GPL-3+ to plain Artistic-2". But the README file still states "It may be used, redistributed and/or modified under the terms of the Perl Artistic License, version 2 or later, OR the terms of the GNU General Public License, v3 or later." Could the license be clarified, and ideally a LICENSE file be added to the source tarball? Thanks.

License is Artistic version 2, I forgot to update the README when I made the previous release. I will make a new release tomorrow which fixes the README and adds a LICENSE file. Thanks for the report, -- Marius Gavrilescu
