Sorry I misinterpreted the result I got from licensecheck (must have been tired yesterday..)

The problem I have is that the Antonio extracted by licensecheck is a contributor,
not the © owner:

$ licensecheck -m --copyright lib/JIRA/Client/Automated.pm 
lib/JIRA/Client/Automated.pm    UNKNOWN Antonio Perez Testa <japtesta at gmail.com>

Looks like the following line matches the © detector regexp:

=item José Antonio Perez Testa <japtesta at gmail.com>

Note that the firstname "José" is not extracted by licensecheck. 

I can only guess that the regexp confuses "é" with "©"...

You can find the whole file there:

All the best
