Summary: Review Request: perl-SVG-Graph - Visualize your data in Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) format Alias: perl-SVG-Graph https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=233848 ------- Additional Comments From alexl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 2007-04-02 03:11 EST ------- Contacted upstream and Allen Day confirmed that perl-SVG-Graph is released under the Artistic license (see e-mail below). I will ask him to add the license to the CPAN webpage and add it inside the tarball, and ask him to roll a new tarball, if possible.
