Summary: Review Request: arpack - Fortran77 subroutines for solving large scale eigenvalue problems https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=214967 ------- Additional Comments From dbateman@xxxxxxx 2007-02-15 07:57 EST ------- (From update of attachment 148107) I phoned Danny Sorensen to try and get clarification for this. He stated that it was the lawyers at RICE that required him to have the license, and so he hesitated to change the license due to the need to involve the RICE lawyers in the loop. He was however willing to clarify the statement <quote> Written notification is provided to the developers of intent to use this software. Also, we ask that use of ARPACK is properly cited in any resulting publications or software documentation. </quote> and how it applies to Fedora. The clarification is in the attached e-mail above from Danny. Essentially, he is not asking that Fedora or their users inform him of the use of ARPACK. However, he is requesting that the "eigs" function that uses ARPACK cites it. This is in fact the case, however, I take this statement a bit further in meaning that code that links to ARPACK muct mention ARPACK in its documentation Is this an acceptable clarification? If not what is needed to further clarify this point?
