[Bioperl-l] question on license issue

[J Landman]

Folks:

  I am developing a code which will not be GPLed, or Artistic Licensed. 
It will be open source for the end user, but for various reasons, I need
to restrict redistribution.  Does that preclude me from using the
BioPerl modules?

  Basically I want to

	#!/usr/bin/perl -w

	use Bio::SeqIO;

	# my stuff here.

I know that if I directly use the source in my application, that it
makes the application Artistically licensed.  What about the "use"
command?  Are perl modules considered viral with respect to licensing?

Thanks in advance.

Joe
