You should also have received a copy of the GNU General Public License

 +
For those of you that choose to use the GNU General Public License,
 +
my interpretation of the GNU General Public License is that no Perl
 +
script falls under the terms of the GPL unless you explicitly put
 +
said script under the terms of the GPL yourself.  Furthermore, any
 +
object code linked with perl does not automatically fall under the
 +
terms of the GPL, provided such object code only adds definitions
 +
of subroutines and variables, and does not otherwise impair the
 +
resulting interpreter from executing any standard Perl script.  I
 +
consider linking in C subroutines in this manner to be the moral
 +
equivalent of defining subroutines in the Perl language itself.  You
 +
may sell such an object file as proprietary provided that you provide
 +
or offer to provide the Perl source, as specified by the GNU General
 +
Public License.  (This is merely an alternate way of specifying input
 +
to the program.)  You may also sell a binary produced by the dumping of
 +
a running Perl script that belongs to you, provided that you provide or
 +
offer to provide the Perl source as specified by the GPL.  (The
 +
fact that a Perl interpreter and your code are in the same binary file
 +
is, in this case, a form of mere aggregation.)  This is my interpretation
 +
of the GPL.  If you still have concerns or difficulties understanding
 +
my intent, feel free to contact me.  Of course, the Artistic License
 +
spells all this out for your protection, so you may prefer to use that.
