Adding Copyright and Licensing information with Dist::Zilla

Dist::Zilla requires license and copyright information to be added to the dist.ini file:

  license = Perl_5
  copyright_holder = Ricardo Signes

Valid values of the license field are the name of Software::License subclasses. You can just enter the bit that comes after Software::License::, unless the class doesn't start with that. In that case, you'll need to add a leading equals sign.

The License license plugin, included as part of the Basic bundle will automatically create a LICENSE file in the distribution. The content of the file is based on the value provided in the license field.

The PodWeaver plugin will automatically add several pod sections to each .pm file, including one called =head1 COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE with the proper information based on the license and copyright_holder fields.
