| Subject: | Module::Build::Base: Suggest support for GPL v3 (patch attached) |
With the release of GPL version 3.0, the links on www.opensource.org
have been updated. I think the valid_licenses subroutine (or rather,
the %licenses hash) in Module::Build::Base should change. I propose the
attached patch against Base.pm which:
(1) Adds an explicit 'gpl2' license option with the correct link.
(2) Adds a 'gpl3' option pointing to the new version at
http://www.opensource.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.html.
This change should not be controversial or break any existing code.
Version 0.2807 of Module::Build.
