Gisle,
Thank you for doing this. I am hoping that it will make the suite
easier to manage both for you and for linux distributions.
We have however hit a couple of niggles whilst working on the packaging
of the new version for Debian. First of all the File::Listing module does not
have any clear copyright statement. Of course in the past we took the copyright
for the package as a whole, so there was not an issue for individual files as
long as the status or the whole package was clear. Presumably some other files
will have the same issue. A simple statement in a reply would do for now,
though obviously it would be ideal if all the new modules could be done to the
same standard.
Thanks for pointing this out. All the dists should have "Same license as Perl"
clauses. I'll fix it.
Thanks. Actually it is not just the license information that we need.
Just as important is the copryright information. For example
Copyright 1995-1999, Gisle Aas <gi...@activestate.com>
The second issue is that we have no clear time line for when you expect
to resolve the IPv6 incompatibility.
I have not followed what the current state of this is. What prevents the core
IO::Socket::INET from just working with IPv6?
Seems wrong to me to start depending on the non-core IO::Socket::INET6. Does
that module even work on Windows?

I have not looked into this issue in detail either. Getting it fixed in
IO::Socket::INET seems pretty logical to me and I will make enquiries in
that area. I cannot help thinking that someone must have tried that
before though.
