Hi FTP masters,
as you can see, I did a full license review of Perl for this release.
Happily I found very few problems.
I'm a bit uneasy with the licensing of
pod/perlembed.pod
pod/perlmodinstall.pod
which seems to imply that the document title (and, less importantly,
author information) is an invariant section that can't be modified.
Is this something that needs to be fixed? Please note that it's been
like this since at least 1998, so this is not a regression.
I'm pasting the full license for your convenience:
Permission is granted to make and distribute verbatim copies of this
documentation provided the copyright notice and this permission notice are
preserved on all copies.
Permission is granted to copy and distribute modified versions of this
documentation under the conditions for verbatim copying, provided also
that they are marked clearly as modified versions, that the authors'
names and title are unchanged (though subtitles and additional
authors' names may be added), and that the entire resulting derived
work is distributed under the terms of a permission notice identical
to this one.
Permission is granted to copy and distribute translations of this
documentation into another language, under the above conditions for
modified versions.
Thanks for all the work you do for Debian!
