Softwar...EUPL_1_2(3)
π NAME π
Software::License::EUPL_1_2 β bestie, it's literally the European Union Public License (EUPL) v1.2, packaged up all cute so your Perl code can wear it π
So real talk: this is the module, the manual page you're reading is Softwar...EUPL_1_2(3) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation over at perl v5.42.0 β and it lowkey only does one thing, which is be the EUPL v1.2 license object. Iconic, focused, no notes β¨
π VERSION π
version 0.104007
That's the one, that's the number, write it down π
π¦ PERL VERSION π¦
Okay so this part is important and also kind of a vibe check on the whole ecosystem πΈ
This module is part of the CPAN toolchain, or is treated as such. And because of that, it follows the agreement of the Perl Toolchain Gang to require no newer version of perl than one released in the last ten years. The way that works is very "we collectively agreed to be reasonable" π«Ά
This version may change by agreement of the Toolchain Gang, but for now it's governed by the Lancaster Consensus of 2013 and the Lyon Amendment of 2023 (the amendment is described at the linked-to document, iykyk):
https://github.com/Perl-Toolchain-Gang/toolchain-site/blob/master/lancaster-consensus.md
Lowkey though, hear me out: although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made that the minimum required version will not be increased. The version may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl. So likeβ¦ plan accordingly bestie π
