Minpack package manifest meta data #9

Description

@awvwgk

The meta data in the package manifest seems somewhat inaccurate

minpack/fpm.toml

Lines 1 to 5 in 2e94806

name = "minpack"
version = "0.0.1"
license = "BSD"
author = "Jacob Williams"
copyright = "Copyright 2021, Jacob Williams"

For comparison the version by Ondřej @certik specifies

minpack/fpm.toml

Lines 1 to 10 in c0dc9cd

name = "minpack"
description = "Minpack includes software for solving nonlinear equations and nonlinear least squares problems."
homepage = "http://www.netlib.org/minpack/"
version = "1.0.0"
license = "http://www.netlib.org/minpack/disclaimer"
author = "Jorge Moré, Burt Garbow, and Ken Hillstrom"
maintainer = "@fortran-lang"
copyright = "Minpack Copyright Notice (1999) University of Chicago. All rights reserved"
categories = ["numerical"]
keywords = ["least squares", "linear equations", "nonlinear equations"]

I think using a semantic version 1.0.0 would be more appropriate, however if the API was changed it should use 2.0.0 instead. Also, the author and copyright field seem incorrect in this version.
