The latest version of Authen::CAS::Client has switched to a LICENSE file of:

This is certainly not going to pass corporate compliance departments, as a few of us are currently trying to explain to the author on a bug, but it also makes me wonder: Do we have a restriction officially stated anywhere of "software you're allowed to upload to us, that we then have rights to distribute" ? In the Nagios::Plugin case the issue was who had the copyright; in this case the issue is that the copyright holder isn't granting enough via the license, but I'm wondering whether (a) we need to do anything about this (b) even if we don't *legally* need to, do we have a policy that we can quote to try and get the author to pick a license that people can use? -- Matt S Trout - Shadowcat Systems - Perl consulting with a commit bit and a clue http://shadowcat.co.uk/blog/matt-s-trout/ http://twitter.com/shadowcat_mst/ Email me now on mst (at) shadowcat.co.uk and let's chat about how our CPAN commercial support, training and consultancy packages could help your team.
