Since most perl modules just say "you can redistribute it and/or
modify it under the same terms as Perl itself" (the README included in
%doc says that), I would think that would be good enough. If the
module includes Artistic or COPYING, I would definitely include it in
the package, but generating it for each package that doesn't seems a
bit excessive to me.
I'm not violently opposed to the idea or anything though, so if that's
what is decided, I'll do it...
