taking care of a package is quite time consumming especially if you are also the upstream.
So the more peoples are involve in this debian-science, the easyer it will be for all of us.
I hope that debian-science will become a reference for most of scientists where you can find
most of the scientific software product and convince peoples to release there software with a dfsg
compliant licence.
This non commercial clause cause that we found in a great number of scientific software
is realy a problem.
what is the position of debian science for the distribute of that kind of software ?
I am working now on the tango packaging for the dataacquisition. [1]
