I'm going to put my repository on Savannah (sv.nongnu.org), and I'll have the Savannah page point to the MetaCPAN page as the homepage. Then I'll have the MetaCPAN page point to Savannah as the git repository, but should I also have MetaCPAN point to Savannah as the homepage? I'm thinking not, because it would be confusing to have MetaCPAN and Savannah disagree on what the homepage is, right? > Feel free to specify the license field in resources, but it is just > for URLs to license text which is not necessary if you provide the > text of your licenses in the distribution, as most dzil dists do > automatically.
