+ They are, yes. I'm trying to retire maintainership of my CPAN packages, so I
+ don't particularly want to update these (to reflect the licensing) without
+ finding a new maintainer to take over. Is this confirmation all that you
+ need, or should I be trying to find someone to put license info in the
+ package as well?
