+ Subject: Re: Audio::CD - license question
+
+ Hi Gregor,
+ 0.04 was the last version I released on CPAN, it actually had no license at
+ all if you look at those sources:
+ http://search.cpan.org/src/DOUGM/Audio-CD-0.04/.  It should have been
+ "licensed for use under the same terms as Perl itself" like the majority of
+ other modules on CPAN.  I don't maintain the module anymore, you have my
+ permission to with 0.04 as you wish.  Afraid I'm not familar with the 0.05
+ version.
+
+ Regards,
+ -Doug
