Hey folks,
Just got a PR against IO::Compress to add a LICENSE file. The user is having to jump through hoops to get code past an automated quality process that checks the license of any open-source distro being used. In this case it barfs because there isn't an explicit LICENSE file.
Have no problems with adding it, and was going to use Artistic 2.0 (simply because it is the latest), but I note that https://github.com/Perl/perl5/blob/blead/Artistic is Artistic 1.0. Is that going to cause issues when the CPAN IO::Compress gets sucked into the main Perl distribution?
Also, is there a reason that to 2.0 license isn't being used?
