+ * Relicense qpdf under version 2.0 of the Apache License rather
+ than version 2.0 of the Artistic License. Both are fine, but the
+ Apache License is in more widespread use, and I like it a little
+ better than Artistic-2.0. It is my intention that there be no
+ change in what you can or can't do with qpdf. Versions of qpdf
+ prior to version 7 were released under the terms of version 2.0 of
+ the Artistic License. At your option, you may continue to consider
+ qpdf to be licensed under those terms. Please see the manual for
+ additional information.
