Hi,

How will this be different from the existing package nec?
Your package name is different but your description is identical!

Perhaps it's because of C++/Python rather than the original FORTRAN.
This must translate into some sort of benefit to the end-user that could
be listed in the description.

Thanks,
Hamish
