Michael,
just to be clear:  We are not violating the license.

See http://www.perlfoundation.org/artistic_license_2_0

at point 4 and 4a, the distribution of modified version is allowed.

Anyway, I have no interest what's so ever in distributing the package

I was just helping Enrico in my role cygwin package manager for R.
