Subject: No LICENSE or ABSTRACT in META.yml
Hi there, just thought I'd bring this to your attention: 

https://metacpan.org/source/ALEXP/Catalyst-Model-DBI-0.29/META.yml

 

 

abstract:           ~
license:            unknown

 

This is why it displays "unknown" in the space for "License" on this page: https://metacpan.org/release/Catalyst-Model-DBI

And why it doesn't give any descriptions on this page: https://metacpan.org/author/ALEXP

Fortunately this is reasonably straight forward.

 

Abstract:

 

 You can either set abstract explicitly with

 

ABSTRACT => "Foo Bar Baz"    # in Makefile.PL 

Or use

ABSTRACT_FROM => 'lib/Catalyst/Model/DBI.pm'

 

And Based on the text at the bottom of Catalyst::Model::DBI, to set a Perl-5 type license,

LICENSE => 'perl',

Should be sufficient.

https://metacpan.org/module/ExtUtils::MakeMaker#LICENSE
https://metacpan.org/module/Module::Build::API#license
https://metacpan.org/module/ExtUtils::MakeMaker#ABSTRACT

 

Hope this helps.
