Re: Free source code of fastsimcoal2 available?



Hi,

I'm very flattered that you think of including fastsimcoal2 in the Debian distribution, but unfortunately, the source code is not available

best regards

Hi Laurent,

I'm writing you on behalf of the Debian Med team which tries to assemble
free software in biology inside the official Debian distribution.  We
have created Debian packages of several biological applications[1] and
development tools[2].  When running the test suite of BioPython I
realised that it has an interface to fastsimcoal2 and I had a look at
its website[3].  Unfortunately I can find only binary downloads without
source code there and no statement whether the source might be available
or not.  I wonder whether you might consider to release the code under a
free license which would enable us to include fastsimcoal2 into Debian.

Kind regards

      Andreas.
