  Tue Aug 18 12:40:09 2009 REHSACK [...] cpan.org - Ticket created
Subject: License are not the same in POD, Makefile.PL and META.yml
This is a minor issue, but important to have a clean state: which are the license conditions to use and/or redistribute this module?

POD is canonical. I'll get the Makefile.PL fixed. On Tue, Aug 18, 2009 at 12:40:11PM -0400, Jens Rehsack via RT wrote: Show quoted text

Better fix the META.yml - or much better: generate META.yml from Makefile.PL (make metafile for EU::MM) Jens

Right. That was implicit, but should have been explicit ;)

Actually, I'm not sure we can easily resolve this for META.yml purposes. The documentation clearly states that it's licensed under "Same as Perl" OR (at your option) MIT. Does MakeMaker/META.yml have a way to specify that? Show quoted text

The best person you can ask this is Michael Schwern :) The most interesting question on this is: Is the entire module license under all three licenses (GPLv2 OR Artistic OR MIT)? If yes, where is the benefit? But this doesn't affect the current problem - it's just a question I ask myself when I see such a constellation. Jens
