It was indeed updated on CTAN yesterday. License info in generated files now
reads:
> Copyright 2000-\the\year

while cc.dtx refers to "LPPL v1.2 or latter at your option".
One restrictive statement remains in cc.ins :
%% In particular, NO PERMISSION is granted to modify the contents of this
%% file since it contains the legal notices that are placed in the files
%% it generates.
but I don't really know wether this is a problem or not. The author asked me
in private in I thought everything was ok; I didn't answer him yet. What do
you think?
Anyway, I updated it in TL svn today (rev 7666) so the bug can be tagged
fixed-upstream if you think the new license statement is ok.
Manuel.
PS: I just noticed the journal.bib has no license statement at all :/
