In package texlive-extra, the header comment of file texmf-dist/doc/latex/confproc/example/papers/IEEEtrans.bst says:


%% This code is distributed under the Perl Artistic License
%% ( http://language.perl.com/misc/Artistic.html )
%% and may be freely used, distributed and modified - subject to the
%% constraints therein.


It refers to the Artistic License 1.0, which is non-free.
