Well, for grins I looked to see how you license your modules. Your license/copyright statement is in the README, not the POD so after the module is installed, the license statement disappears [ unless the user keeps the source dir around ]. The user, in the future will either need to find the source dist for that version again or email the author to clarify the license terms. I don't see how this is different than not stating your license explicitly in the POD. This is indeed a problem. The license statement should be in the source files, so it can't get separated from them. Russ, how about if you fix this, as a way to set a good example for everyone else?
