I'm evaluating the project you submitted for approval in Savannah (sorry for the delay in replying to your application). Saying: "This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself." does not give enough legal protection to your package, to make it qualify as free software. If you want to release your package with a double license, as done for perl, you must provide copies of both licenses with your package, and every source file should show a complete copying permission statement. I think it would be easier to just use the GPL and follow the advice of http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html but it is up to you to choose your license. Please register your project once more with the changes mentioned above. The way we handle pending projects makes it difficult to keep track of projects that have been answered but have not been approved yet, so we erase them and we ask you to register the project again every time some change has to be done to the registration, and users might have to register their projects several times. Thank you for your understanding. Some users find it useful to use the big re-registration URL provided in the acknowledgment e-mail you received after registration.
