Subject: License
The license of script/s2p is "This program is free and open software. You may use, modify, distribute, and sell this program (and any modified variants) in any way you wish, provided you do not restrict others from doing the same." This does not look like the GPL or the Artistic license which are mention at LICENSE. Could you please change it to following: "This is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as the Perl 5 programming language system itself." Thank you, Jitka

Thank for making me aware of this. Actually, I think the fix is the other way around. The documentation is added by the author of this s2p, the LICENSE is automatically generated and was based on the license of the wider project it was extracted from. I'll look into fixing this. This sounds like a custom license formulation, though it essentially seems identical CC BY-SA. Leon
