I suggest: - If you can contact the previous owner, find out why they set it to "public domain" - If that doesn't work, or in parallel, try to contact the upstream author (through some means other than CPAN) As it currently stands I'm concerned that "public domain" may have been included without any justification. Of course in all likelihood the author intended to put it under "the same terms as Perl" but we can't just assume that.
