Do you know what the license terms for redistribution of this module are? Ideally you simply upload the module to CPAN and, optionally, advise the producers of Strawberry Perl and ActiveState that it is available so they can package it up for their users. So long as it being proprietary does not prevent this model of distribution that's all you need to do. Jason Clifford
