Dear Jorja!
I am Laszlo Kajan from Burkhard Rost's Lab, writing to you on behalf of the Debian Med Team. Debian Med is packaging bioinformatics software for
Debian and Ubuntu.
We have recently included blimps in the non-free section of the distribution, thanks to the fact that you make it available under the FHCRC
NONCOMMERCIAL LICENSE.
This is especially important because sift - an important tool to predict the phenotypic affects of point mutations - of Pauline Ng depends on
blimps and so the packaging of sift requires a blimps package. While the FHCRC NONCOMMERCIAL LICENSE does allow packaging and royalty-free
redistribution, its restrictions make it difficult to maintain /dependent/ software like sift in Debian/Ubuntu. Therefore I turn to you with the
question:
=> Would it be possible at this point to change the license of blimps to a free license such as LGPL/GPL?
Thank you very much for making blimps available to the bioinformatics community and for considering our question.
Best regards,
Laszlo Kajan
Debian Med Team
