As an update to bug report #379388, I just spent a few moments on the phone with Dr R Lusk, the acting director of the MCS division at Argonne National Labs where pgapack originates.
Dr Lusk is sympathetic to getting pgapack relicensed and suggests the simpler MPICH2 license that was used for some of his recent research work at MCS / Argonne, and with which the legal staff at Argonne are familiar. See http://www-unix.mcs.anl.gov/mpi/mpich2/license.htm for that rather short and sweet license. Even better, Dr Lusk knows pgapack's author, Dr David Levine, personally and will try to contact him to in order to get pgpack relicensed. Regards, Dirk -- Hell, there are no rules here - we're trying to accomplish something. -- Thomas A. Edison -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
