For the second time could I ask you to explain why you believe this
copyright file is incorrect? Previously you suggested the code
was licensed under the LGPL and that this was the reason why the
package was incorrect (because I said "perl" for the license type.)
The copyright file I include in the package reads as follows:
---------------------------
This is the debian package for the Net-HTTPServer module.
It was created by Steve Kemp <skx@xxxxxxxxxx>.
The upstream author of Net::HTTPServer is:
Ryan Eatmon <reatmon@xxxxxxxx>.
Copyright (c) 2003-2005 Ryan Eatmon <reatmon@xxxxxxxx>. All rights
reserved. This program is free software; you can redistribute it
and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself.
---------------------------
ie. perl artistic license or lpgl.
Whilst previously you pointed to the inclusion of the file
LICENSE.LGPL as confirmation that the module is distributed
soley under the terms of the LGPL I point you to this section
of text incldued in each perl module (in addition to the LGPL header):
---------------------------
=head1 COPYRIGHT
Copyright (c) 2003-2005 Ryan Eatmon <reatmon@xxxxxxxx>. All rights
reserved. This program is free software; you can redistribute it
and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself.
=cut
---------------------------
I believe this is clear enough, and that the module is therefore
licensed both under the terms of the LGPL *and* the perl artistic
license - so that my copyright file is correct.
However I will not upload again without a reply either agreeing
that my intepretation is correct, or suggestion an appropriate
copyright file that I should use. That should avoid wasting your
time further, or my own.
Steve
