According to this excerpt (from http://search.cpan.org/src/LUISMUNOZ/NetAddr-IP-4.007/README )... # LICENSE AND WARRANTY # # This software is (c) Luis E. Muñoz and Michael A. Robinton. It can be # used under the terms of the perl artistic license provided that proper # credit for the work of the authors is preserved in the form of this # copyright notice and license for this module. ... there is no mention to a specific version number for the license. > [...] We have several other popular applications which depend on your > code, so > I am hopeful that you will be willing to relicense (either to Artistic > 2.0 or any other license of your choice on this list: > http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing#Good_Licenses ) or dual > license > (for example, the same license as perl, GPL+ or Artistic). I would be willing to relicense to Artistic 2.0 if need be. However, the code is rather stable at this time. I think it would not be a wise use of time to start tracking "upstream license version number" as well :-) Regards. -lem Subject: Re: License of perl-NetAddr-IP From: "Luis E." =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Mu=F1oz?= <lem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "Tom \"spot\" Callaway" <tcallawa@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 07 Aug 2008 12:06:33 -0430 On Thu, 2008-08-07 at 11:57 -0400, Tom "spot" Callaway wrote: > In the interim, will you give Fedora permission to distribute this > code > under Artistic 2.0? Of course. I'll tack a note to update the wording in the next release.
