This list is lame, it's not a canonical format. For example "perl" is not a license, but two, and it's the only way you can specify that this module is dual licensed, etc. Furthermore, many opensource license are compatible with the GPL (that is, they are more permissive than it) even if they aren't listed in that file. If someone would like to compile a directory of licenses as a module, with data from that license site, then this would be nice, but Module::Build's data is just not good enough to be a fair metric. -- Yuval Kogman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://nothingmuch.woobling.org 0xEBD27418
