Hi all: I realize DEP5 and all of that stuff regarding a machine-readable copyright isn't set yet.
However, I've come across a case where tarballs contain files that have various copyrights, and I'm not sure how to represent them in d/copyright. For example, if an upstream module contains a Stuff.tar.gz, and that file itself contains stuff that is all under the same license, but has different copyright information. Assume Stuff.tar.gz contains files: foo.c bar.txt baz.c And foo.c is: Copyright 2005 Some Company A bar.txt is Copyright 2002 Some Person B baz.c is Copyright 2002-2007 Other Fictional Entity How would we represent such a case? Would we need to unpack that tarball and then reference the files appropriately? I have come across this case in Module::CPANTS::Analyse, which is a Perl module that looks inside .tar.gz files without extracting them out. It includes several such tarballs as a way to test the module functionality. Cheers, Jonathan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
