I recommend using either "open_source", "unrestricted", "restrictive", or "unknown", by looking at the documentation for each and deciding which one matches your intent best, and then using the "meta_merge" feature (or hand-editing the META.yml file) to point to a URL containing the exact text of the license you'd like to use. In accordance with the META.yml spec (http://module-build.sourceforge.net/META-spec-blead.html#resources), it would look like this: resources: license: http://example.org/your-license.txt MailingList: http://hop.perl.plover.com/#mlist That seems flexible enough to me, or is there some issue I'm not thinking about? -Ken
